Code Not Compiling

[nayyeraafaq]

Hi there,
I am unable to compile the code and getting below error.

Arduino: 1.8.9 (Windows Store 1.8.21.0) (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"
draginoLora:18:18: error: lmic.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
exit status 1
lmic.h: No such file or directory
This report would have more information with
"Show verbose output during compilation"
option enabled in File -> Preferences.

I have placed libraries folder as well all the libraries in the same directory as .ino file. Still program does not verify the code and does not compile as it can't find the said files. Any idea whats going wrong here ? Thanks

Do we have to connect the hardware before trying to compile? As am not connected at the moment and just trying the code itself. I think that we need when uploading the code. Am I right ?
