    Every time I try opening Creator, the 0xc000007b error pops up. Designer, though, work well. Does anyone know what could be causing this error?
    Note: It also happens when I try compiling GLUT so, something might be wrong with my computer.

      Hi, I solved the problem by updating my outdated windows. I had no idea that not updating it would cause problems, there were 78 updates to be installed! Thank you all for trying to help

        @Forfunckle said in Qt Creator goes 0xc000007b:

        0xc000007b

        This looks not like an error. More like a memory address

        OS? When exactly do you get crash? Where does this message show up? On your OS or inside Qt Creator?
        Do you have permissions to read / write to all program directories?


        If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.

          @Pl45m4 I use Windows 7 64 bit. In the moment I open Creator, I get this exact error:
          The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.
          Nothing else happens, the program doesn't open. The error pops up instead of Creator, on my OS. The same happens when I run it as administrator. Yes, I have the permission to read and write the program directories.

            @Forfunckle Did you try to disable anti virus software?
            How did you install QtCreator?
            Is your windows up to date?

            Try to start QtCreator from command line and add "-noload Welcome" parameter.

              If this no work, try to only enable core module by starting QCreator with parameter "-noload all -load Core" (be aware, module names are case sensitive!)

                Looks like this is a known Windows problem and not caused by Qt Creator.

                Are there any issues with other software, when you try to run it?

                    Step 6 on that list :)

                    Sometimes Windows Updates actually help :)

                      Just a heads up, I received this error awhile back when trying to deploy an app using MSVC. My problem was caused by not having the openSSL dll's in the deployment folder.
