Cannot seem to load any images/bitmaps from QT Creators resource system

You mean anti-malware scanner? Well that would have to be windows defender then, since I don't have anything else installed of that nature.
Is there maybe still a way to somehow exclude rcc from installation by making wrong selections in the dialogs during installation of Qt+Qt Creator? You said it's a core feature, but...

Yeah, but its rare i have seen Defender eat anything so most likely something else.
As far as I know, rcc i included in all precompiled and there is no option to not have it installed.

Hm, removed the mingw53_32 folder from the installation because I thought that
maybe "QT Creator" itself somehow needed mingw53_32 to be present to function correctly, but nothing changed. The path to the alias still works correctly although
other synthaxes don't work, but that seems to be another issue so maybe my build directory just got corrupted somehow. Anyhow thanks for your help.

The non-alias resource path works too now. Cool ;-)

mnob

You can't seem to use a non-alias resource path once an alias has been assigned.

Like
<file alias="cut-img.png">images/cut.png</file>
and then you cannot use ":/images/cut-img.png" anymore ?

mnob

Exactly. Once an alias has been defined, I can access the resource by that alias exclusively.

Ok, not sure if by design or not working.

Seems to be the same for Desktop_Qt_5_10_1_MinGW_32bit-Debug.

Before I was using Desktop_Qt_5_10_1_MSVC2017_64bit-Debug.

Hi
I thinks by design. Its not ALSO listed under org name so
only the alias name is available.

O.K. I see.

Seems like it helps to delete the build folder or clean project and run qmake+rebuild.
