    Hello, I'm a new user and I'm having problems with th ide. I created a new C++ project and added a header and a source files. The project compiles and runs correctly but when I hit the debugger button it says: "Starting executable failed: [PATH].exe: No such file or directory". I checked the path and the .exe file is there, so I don't really understand what the problem is.

      @Gregor_-15 said in Starting executable failed:

      [PATH].exe

      Is this your executable or the debugger? Did you build your app in debug mode?
      On which OS are you? Which Qt and QtCreator version do you use? Is debugger set up properly (check in QtCreator under Options)?

        Hello, thanks for answering. I've alredy solved my problem. The path had my name in it which has an accent, that was the issue.

          You should change your real-life name to not have an accent ;-)
