    I just installed the open source Qt Creator Community Edition and tried to launch it by opening the qtcreator.exe but it does not launch?
    What can I do about this? I just want to launch it.

      Hi @norm44,

      which OS is that. Which Creator version did you install and from where did you download it?

      Regards

      Qt has to stay free or it will die.

        Hey @aha_1980,
        I installed the 5.14.2 version for Windows 10. I went to https://www.qt.io/download-open-source and downloaded the Qt Online Installer from there.
        I picked the MinGW 7.3.0 32-bit and 64-bit version, also Qt Charts, Qt Data Visualization and Qt Network Authorization.
        For Developer and Designer Tools I picked the Qt 4.12.0 CDB Debugger and also MinGW 32-bit and 64-bit.

        Regards

          Hi @norm44,

          Strange thing. Can you try to start Creator from the command prompt:

          <path-to-qtcreator>\qtcreator -noload all -load Core

          and see if at least that minimal environment works?

          Regards

            Hi @aha_1980,
            so I tried it in the command prompt but it still doesn't launch.
            I can see the qtcreator.exe (32-bit) in my Task-Manager but nothing shows up on my screen when I try to launch it.

            Regards
