Can't create a qt project with qmake

Gabriele

HI,
Yes i'm working with windows 10 and yes it happens also for the examples

mrjj

Hi
And you configure project to use mingw and mingw was installed together
with Qt (for mingw)
Do you have visual studio installed?

Plenty of other people seems to have had this bug but that's for 5.9 version. not in 5.15.2
so i do wonder

Gabriele

Yes i configure the project to work with mingw and i install it togheter with qt .
No i don't have visual studio installed

Hi
Ok.
I think you are experiencing this bug
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-22240

You could try older Qt if its not critical to use 5.15

Make sure to uninstall the 5.15.2 one first. reboot and then
install a bit older version.

Gabriele

OK, it's not a problem to change version, which one do you suggest to install?

Gabriele

Right now i'm using the 5.13.2 version but i still have the same problem

@Gabriele @mrjj Suggested 5.15.2 which is the latest stable Qt5 release.

Gabriele

the 5.15.2 is the one that i used

@Gabriele Sorry, I completely misunderstood the post from @mrjj

Hi
Thank you.
Well, any other version would do to test but i
was thinking like 5.9.9 just to see with very other version.
but after googling around I guess it will happen to any version.

From what i understand, this can come from

1: having a stale .qmake.stash in project folder or in search path.
--It sounds like its first time you try to use Qt so why would have such file around.
--Also the examples does the same, so cant be your project.

2: The virus scanner was the reason as it would do silly stuff during installation/and or compile.
--So do you have something special installed besides Windows Defender ?

3: Broken Qt installation.
--But you reinstalled many times so cant be that.

Gabriele

Yes, it can be the virus scanner, but i don't have the permissions to disable it.
