Messy

I already made a post but Im remaking it with the code I currently have in IntelliJ. When I try to run the code it throws an exception:

I tried to redo it all and am unsure of why it cant find the class.

Messy.java
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;

public class Messy {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("one");
        System.out.println("two");
        System.out.println("three");
        System.out.println("four");
        System.out.println("five");
//        Please comment out this line and
//        this line as well with a hotkey that does multi - line commenting
        List<String> numberWords = Arrays.asList("six", "seven", "eight", "nine");
        for (String numberWord : numberWords) {
            System.out.println(numberWord);
        }
    }
}

Is it because IntelliJ is creating the new project in my Users folder?

Hey Kyle can you screenshot your Project window in IntelliJ please? Seems like the file isn't being found...maybe it's in a weird directory/folder?

I was able to get it fixed. Thanks for your timely reply!
