    @Bonnie I always leave that folder as it so that i don't "break" something. I will check it although!

        Hi, if you try run another Qt project from inside Qt Creator, like one of Qt's examples, do you get the same error?

          @hskoglund Theoretically no because i have another project (although with Qt5.2.1) which compiles and runs (from inside Qt) perfectly.
          Should i try to test with a new project with 5.12.1?

                Do you have other versions of Qt installed on your system ? For example by other applications ?

                    I meant: check your system for other Qt version that may have been installed along any of your applications.

                          Should i reinstall Qt 5.12.1 to possibly correct the problem?

                                Reinstalling seems to have fixed the problem! Heck if i knew what was wrong! Can someone mark this issue as solved?

                                EDIT: Sorry! I found out how to mark my thread as solved! Thanks again for the help!
