I have messed with Visual Studio and now paying the price

ed-wright

Hi Forum,

I was looking through my Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Modify Settings and came across common tools for visual C++ 2015, i checked the box and clicked update.

Now when i am on Qt Creator any project i run gives the following error when i try to run it.

Starting D:\QTProjects\build-MVV_QT-Desktop_Qt_5_10_1_MSVC2015_32bit-Debug\debug\MVV_QTf.exe...
The program has unexpectedly finished.
The process was ended forcefully.
D:/QTProjects/build-MVV_QT-Desktop_Qt_5_10_1_MSVC2015_32bit-Debug/debug/MVV_QTf.exe crashed.

I have no idea what to do :(

Hi,

Did you do a full rebuild of you application ?

@SGaist Yes i have done a full rebuild and now only x64 builds work, whereas before only x86 builds worked. Also the x86 version is complaining it cant find rc.exe. I dont know if that helps

Thanks

hi @ed-wright,

we had that recently for someone else with rc.

I think he worked around this by adding the PATH to rc.exe in his Kits settings. But idealy it should work out of the box.

Which Creator version is this?
