    Right click on your project in QtCreator (in the project tree list, where you see files of your project)
    And there, click on the clean item of the popupmenu.

        To begin with, where did you copy these dll files from? Be aware that the dll files used by Qt Creator are NOT the one you executable is linked against! One simple way to check it is the fact that Qt-dll files of Qt Creator are 4.7.4 version, and the proper Qt-dll you link against (reside in another folder) are 4.7.3 version. ;-)

        However, you should not copy the dll files in the Release folder! :-)

          I didn´t copy any dll file.
          Do I have to copy dll files into the project folder?

            No you do not! I made the hypothesis that you followed EXACTLY the approach of the initial poster!

            So your problem is when you run the executable from within Qt Creator (e.g.: by pressing the "Play" button?).

            Try this: if your project is named XYZ, do you see a folder named XYZ-build-release (if you build release) or XYZ-build-debug? If yes, delete this folder and try again! ;-)

              hmm, so from beginning: :-D

              I installed Qtcreator on my Windows Pc.

              After this I watched this youtube Video:
              http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLT7oEt6gLE&feature=player_profilepage

              I did exactly the same like in this Video.

              When I press the green button in QtCreator it works fine.

              The I opened the Folder "...\interactiveHelloWord-build-desktop\debug"
              and found the "interactiveHelloWord.exe".
              when I start these .exe file I get an Error-Message wich says "_Z9qBadAllocv" was not found in DLL "QtCore4.dll"

              In German the message says: "Der Prozedureinsprungspunkt "_Z9qBadAllocv" wurde in der DLL "QtCore4.dll" nicht gefunden.

                I make the hypothesis that PATH in your machine is pointing at the wrong dll files!

                  That could be possible but where do I check and change it?

                    To begin with, open a command prompt (Start-->Run-->type cmd and enter) and give the command

                    path

                        You need to add to the current path the location of Qt-dll files (the development ones!).

                          I think you missunderstood Stavros Filippidis, please execute the command path in your command prompt and paste here the result.

                          exemple :
                          @C:>path
                          PATH=c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE;c:\Program Files...@

                                bq. Was it correct?

                                Yes, thank you.

                                Normally, your problem is that your executable is looking after QtCore.dll and QtGui.dll (may be more) and it is finding wrong one in C:\Qt\4.5\bin (the last item in your path list).

                                You can try to launch your application after you have added C:\Qt\4.5\lib at the beginning of your PATH. (help for updating your PATH variable : "How to":http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm)

                                Have you several Qt version installed on your computer? If so, which one are you using for building your app in QtCreator? (you can check it by opening your project in QtCreator and click on "Project" in the left area)

                                  I changed C:\Qt\4.5\bin to C:\Qt\4.5\lib.

                                  But it doesn´t help. :-(

                                  Yesterday I downloadet my Version of Qtcreator. So I hope it is the newest. ;-)
                                  It is Qt 4.7.3

                                    If you compile with Qt 4.7.3, you also have to use the dlls of 4.7.3.

                                        Yes, of course. Try to find where is located your new 4.7.3 dll and add the path to their folder in your PATH. You must put it before any 4.5.3 folders, otherwise your application will try to launch will olds dll ...

                                          Search into your c:\Qt folder, is there a SDK folder or anything? you can search QtCore4.dll using your search file from Windows, and you will see where are all your dll folders
