Click on the "Projects" icon on the left and check if any kit is currently selected.

So as far as I can see that is set up, and your project should compile/build. I will have to leave someone else to reply who might understand what problem you are actually experiencing. You say the Build is disabled, or the Run?

Do you want to show us a screenshot of how your available Build Kits look in Creator? So far as I recall it just "works" under Linux. May require you have installed gcc etc. compiler tools under Arch, I don't know, but the screenshot should show.

May I politely suggest you press Help from Creator and search for kit? Then come back if you still have issues. It is a good idea to search documentation either downloaded with Qt or online, it will serve you well going forward :)
