Icons don't appear in projects (Windows)

[Platinum Lucario]

Not exactly, I'm not building for Android, the kit selected is Desktop Qt 5.12.5 MSVC2017 64bit, not sure why it says in the general messages with this message though:
Project ERROR: You need to set the ANDROID_NDK_ROOT environment variable to point to your Android NDK. Could not read qmake configuration file C:/Qt/5.12.5/android_arm64_v8a/mkspecs/android-clang/qmake.conf.

And as for the imageformats plugin folder, it's there:

Hi
Ok so my be due to having the android kit installed.

You seem to have used the VS kit.
When it show the kit selection, you did only select one kit ?

Hmm. it looks like mine

[Platinum Lucario]

I can confirm that I have only one kit selected, as seen here:

[mrjj]

Hi
Could you try to select the mingw kit instead and see if images show then ?
I recall something with VS and icons.

[Platinum Lucario]

Same problem with minGW 64-bit

I've also tried running Qt Creator as Administrator, but it made no difference.

Hi, just a guess, but try upgrading the graphics driver in your Windows 10 installation.

[Platinum Lucario]

@hskoglund Still doesn't work, even when updating my NVIDIA graphics driver

Hi
Im out of idea what could be wrong.
It does draw the widgets and such, its just images that dont show ?

[Platinum Lucario]

@mrjj Yeah, same here, I tried reinstalling Qt (all of it, including the entire Qt folder), and I still have the same problem.

[mrjj]

Hi
Its pretty odd.
I tried the porymap on 2 different pc and it just worked so clearly something local
at your pc but the normal suspect gfx driver etc seems not to apply.

So when you reinstalled. did you try taking ONLY the mingw version ?

and nothing else ?

[Platinum Lucario]

@mrjj I've tried with both installing everything and tried installing only the mingw version, still the same result

@Platinum-Lucario
can you upload that test project somewhere?

[mrjj]

@J-Hilk
I think its this one

@Platinum-Lucario
Do you have any special anti virus running that might block rcc.exe silently ?

[Platinum Lucario]

@mrjj The only anti-virus I have, is the built-in Windows Defender, does it actually block rcc.exe silently?

[mrjj]

@Platinum-Lucario

Not seen that happen in winver 1803 or heard about that. only avast and other
non native.

When you compile and run restest
are those file generated in the build folder ?

[Platinum Lucario]

@mrjj Here's what appears in the restest debug folder:

[mrjj]

@Platinum-Lucario
Ok super so rcc runs it seems and the file seems valid/has size.
So it must be related to the image plugin somehow.

Have you tried to load a image using a path and see if that shows ?

[Platinum Lucario]

@mrjj Okay, so I tried reselecting the .jpg in the project, and it came up with an error as seen below. But when I selected a .png image, it worked just fine. So I wonder why it's not allowing .ico and .jpg (or even not having them appear in the Choose a Pixmap window)?
