    Hello everybody,
    I'm having a hard time installing Qt Creator on windows 7 x64

    I've tried the offline installer, online installer:
    qt-creator-opensource-windows-x86_64-6.0.0.exe
    qt-unified-windows-x86-4.2.0-online.exe

    Both give me an immediate error:
    "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005).
    Click OK to close the application"

    Any ideas what might be the issue?

    TIA!

      @Mojofarmer QtCreator 6 is based on Qt6 which does not support Windows 7 anymore.
      You will have to stay with QtCreator 5.
      Or, better, upgrade to a more recent Windows version, as Windows 7 reached end of life quite some time ago already.

        Thanks a lot jslum!

        I'll give Qt5 a try first, not too excited about having to upgrade my OS right now....

        Downloading qt-everywhere-src-5.15.2.zip from:
        https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.15/5.15.2/ should get me up and running just like qt-creator-opensource-windows-x86_64-6.0.0.exe would have, right?

          @Mojofarmer Use the Qt online installer to install Qt and QtCreator offline installer from https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/5.0/5.0.3/ to install QtCreator 5.

              FWIW I've made a relevant FR asking for Win7 support in the online installer (essentially, asking to add QtCreator 5 back to the available component repos) at https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-100421.

              Also, if anybody's looking, a full directory of older Creator versions can be found at https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/ (there doesn't seem to be a direct link to past versions on the main website).

              I had success with @jsulm's suggestion; using the latest online installer (you can install the Qt5 toolchains with it still) and then separately installing Qt Creator 5 alongside it (in a different directory). It does leave the non-working Qt Creator 6 installed but it mostly doesn't hurt anything, just takes up some extra drive space.
