.exe file doesn’t start

broinel

Place the libEGL.dll into the exe's folder.

In my case that helped. I'm still having the same problem when i want to run the exe on other computers. But at least it works so far on mine.

Any ideas?

okey i found a solution.

place all the dll's the program is asking for in your directory
place LibEGL.dll in your directory
create a new folder named "platforms"
place "qminimal.dll" and "qwindows.dll" in that folder

start your exe

@broinel Yeah u're right. And if anyone is wondering where to find those .dll files, u will find it on "bin" and "plugins" folder of qt installation directory.

@Giver_Kdk thats a very old thread here, and copying dll's by hand is usually the wrong and error prone way to deploy your qt application.

Qt offers - officially - for Windows the windeployqt tool and for macOS macdeployqt tool:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/windows-deployment.html
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/macos-deployment.html#macdeploy

for linux, you actually have to do it by hand
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/linux-deployment.html
or use the unofficial linuxdeployqt tool
