    Hi All,

    I'm trying to compile and run a programm and I constantly receive these two error messages.
    error: cannot open output file debug\ProjektMockUp.exe: Permission denied
    error: collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

    I really don't know what to do. It started once, crashed, I closed it. I cannot see anything running in the Task Manager, I deactivated my Anti Virus.
    Any Idea?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    This is what the Compile Output tab provides:

    C:/Qt/Qt5.12.8/Tools/mingw730_64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/7.3.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot open output file debug\ProjektMockUp.exe: Permission denied
    collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
    mingw32-make[1]: *** [Makefile.Debug:69: debug/ProjektMockUp.exe] Error 1

        Hi,
        thanks for the quick reply :)
        doesn't work unfortunately.
        Windows says it is still running/opened somewhere.. I scrolled through the Task Manager 4 times now and cannot find it :(

          @Freiluk What works most of the time with Windows is a reboot :-)

            Process Explorer (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer ) allows you to search all processes by handle or DLL substring. But yes, restarting Windows usually helps, too ;)

              This is amazing thank you!
              I finally found it!

              Reboot didn't work, and I finally figured, that I should not run it in Debug mode rather in Release.

              Thanks a lot for your quick help!

              Edit: Process Lasso eventually solved it best for me. It consitently showed the falsely running processes and .exe.
