Installation fails
-
Trying to install QT 6.2.2 with the online installer, it fails with an error that qmake did abort.
I then tried 5.12 and it went through. However, if I start QT Creator, it crashes (GPF). I then tried to run it from command line with -noload all -load core and it also crashes.
As a result, I am currently unable to use QT.

Qt 6 does not support Windows 7 and Qt Creator 6 is built using Qt 6, so not supported either.
Also Microsoft ended support for Windows 7 two years ago.If you need to use an OS so long after its eol you will have to use older version of the Qt library and IDE that support it i.e. Qt 5 and Qt Creator built with it.

@qtFanatic On what OS?

@Chris-Kawa Thanks for the clarification. It would make sense that the installer gives an error message instead of failing unexpectedly.

Agreed, but hey, can't win them all ;)
