QT App crashes directly after starting debug run

[BDC_Patrick]

hi there..

First:

Plattform: Win11
Compiler: QT Mingw64 / MSys-MingW64
CMake: QT-Cmake / MSys-CMake

Following Situation:

I setup QT to use the Msys2 internal mingW64 g++ compiler, to Compile my Cmake Project.
I made a new Kit to handle that, by using msys64\mingw64\bin\gcc.exe as c-compiler and its g++.exe for c++.
For Cmake, i use my own D:\CMake\bin\cmake.exe, which is up to date. But it changes nothing if i use QT bundled..
As Debugger, i tried the QT Bundled and the msys dgb.exe.. no Change

Cmake - No Errors on Building and Linking
QT Compiling- No Errors, too.. finishes normally

But when i try to Start the compiled App, it starts and crashes immediately after that..
The Log of Applications says (from german to english):

14:19:32: Starte D:/...../Application.exe
14:19:32: The program crashed.
14:19:32: The Process stopped
14:19:32: Starte D:/...../Application.exe crashed

I´ve no clue whats guing on.. Debug Logs, Error Logs.. everything is fine.. it just.. crashes...

Since i´m not even seeing a Window...
Here is my CMakeLists.txt:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)

project(Tester LANGUAGES CXX)
set(TEST_PROJECT ${PROJECT_NAME})

project(TileGameStudio_Editor LANGUAGES CXX)
set(EDITOR_PROJECT ${PROJECT_NAME})

My main.cpp is simply the QT default one, created on project creation.. no change right now..

@BDC_Patrick
You run your application from within each debugger, it crashes, but the debuggers don't tell you anything about it? I take it that if you place a breakpoint on entry to your main() you never get there?

[BDC_Patrick]

@JonB that´s right

[J.Hilk]

@BDC_Patrick might be a driver/win11 issue, does it also directly crash with a console application?
