Hi
You just add it to a default Widgets GUI project

So I tried to reselect the icon resource in the porymap project for the pencil icon that is meant to appear, but upon doing so, this error came up:

Hi
it seems you are compiling for android ?
And its not setup correctly which could be the cause of not showing the icons/images.Are you sure you want to compile for android ?

Not exactly, I'm not building for Android, the kit selected is Desktop Qt 5.12.5 MSVC2017 64bit, not sure why it says in the general messages with this message though:
Project ERROR: You need to set the ANDROID_NDK_ROOT environment variable to point to your Android NDK. Could not read qmake configuration file C:/Qt/5.12.5/android_arm64_v8a/mkspecs/android-clang/qmake.conf.

Hi
Ok so my be due to having the android kit installed.You seem to have used the VS kit.

Hi
Could you try to select the mingw kit instead and see if images show then ?
I recall something with VS and icons. -
Same problem with minGW 64-bit

Hi
Its pretty odd.
I tried the porymap on 2 different pc and it just worked so clearly something local
at your pc but the normal suspect gfx driver etc seems not to apply.So when you reinstalled. did you try taking ONLY the mingw version ?
