Qt Creator 14.0

posktomten

What happened to Qt Creator?
I updated to version 14.0.0
In Linux it looks as usual.
In the Windows version, there is only a text editor. See the pictures.
And it doesn't seem to be possible to downgrade to version 13.
Everything needed to create programs appears to have been downloaded. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling.
but only a text editor appears in Qt Creator. Using Windows 11.

Edit -> Preferences...

@posktomten said in Qt Creator 14.0:

That's indeed weird. On Windows 10 it works for me.

And it doesn't seem to be possible to downgrade to version 13.

Uninstall manually or via Maintenance Tool and install QtCreator 13.

The "look and feel" from the QtCreator window as shown in your second picture does not look like QtCreator 14... more like QtCreator 4.1 instead of 14 :)
(but I could be wrong)
Do you have any older versions on your disk that might show up?
Go to Help -> About QtCreator / Qt... and verify the QtCreator version.

That's not good. You can use DebugView and then start Qt Creator from command line:

$ cd C:\Qt\Tools\QtCreator\bin 
$ set QT_LOGGING_RULES=qtc*=true
$ qtcreator.exe

Then DebugView should have some error message, something.

You can get the Qt Creator 13.0.2 from https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/13.0/13.0.2/

Well then, it's Qt Creator 14.0.0
Using "Theme Classic". Then it looks like this.

Update 1:
I found Qt Creato 13.0 here:
https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/13.0/13.0.0/
Installed and it doesn't work either.
I apologize, something else must have gone wrong. I've been using Qt since version 3, and it's always been able to update.
I was surprised. It worked as usual before the update!
I'll have to look further, maybe someone knows?

Update 2:
I'm lucky, I'm running Windows 11 as a guest in VirtualBox and have a spare clone.
Upgraded Qt Creator on the cloned Windows 11. And now it works!
Magic?
Big thanks to @cristian-adam and @Pl45m4 p145m

Please do use the highest minor Qt Creator version available. 13.0.2 has some more bugfixes than 13.0.0 😀

Now that I switched from Windows 11 to a cloned copy, it works with Qt Creator 14.0.0.
No idea why!
Must have done something weird during installation.
