    Hello,

    I have a problem; When I want to install any Qt version on my computer, the installation crash just at the beginning of the installation, the step after indicating the space storage that it will use, after pressing "install" without any error messages or anything.

    This is the first installation and it's on Win10, 64 bits version.

    Does anyone have a solution ? Or an idea why it's happening ?

    I don't, sorry. I have installed Qt on many 64-bit Win 10 machines and I've never had the installer crash.

    What happens if you try on a different PC/laptop?

      try to see if something is reported in your windows event viewer just after the crash

        Hello Thanks for your answer.

        Yes, it is working an my laptop, though I want it on this computer, not the other one.
        So using the other one is not really an option.
        Could it be my firewall maybe ? or anything security wise ?

          Hi, does it still crash if you try installing Qt to some location other than C:\Qt?

                Ok let me rephrase the question: does it still crash if you try to install to C:\Qt?

                    Hmm it could be something hazardous in your PATH settings, you could try open a CMD window with the PATH temporarily set to empty:

                    set path=
                    E:\Téléchargements\qt-unified-windows-x86-3.2.1-2-online.exe

                        The code is clearing the path environment variable to try to ensure the installer doesn't try to load/run/find something elsewhere that it's not supposed to.

                        But it doesn't matter unless you try @hskoglund 2 lines (exactly as shown) in a Command Prompt. See if that makes it work or whether you have the same crash.

                            The PATH is a list of folders. Windows tells your executable to find and load DLLs from the PATH folders.

                            If clearing the PATH stops a program from crashing, then you probably have a case of DLL Hell. One of the folders in your PATH probably contains DLLs that are incompatible with the Qt installer (for example, it might contain a different version of Qt DLLs)

                            For this reason, we should avoid adding items to the PATH unnecessarily (and we should design our software in a way that doesn't need to be put in the PATH)

                                    Do you have another PC? Can you try running the installer on a different PC?

                                          @sunhouzi said in Qt crash at installation:

                                          another pc is no problem.

                                          OK, can you try installing on another PC? Does it crash there?

                                          i change video

                                          Thanks. So the installer can start, but it crashes after you select the items you want to install. Unfortunately, I have never seen a crash at that step before, so I can't say what's causing it. My guess is that something in your OS settings (or antivirus settings) is interfering with the installer.
