    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?

                        @SGaist In what order should i install them in case the order is important? I repeat that i need Qt 5.2.1 and Qt 5.12.1.

                          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!
