How to solve the problem of "Unable to locate the program input point SetThreadDescription on the dynamic link library Qt6Core.dll" when running qtcreator version 15.0

Christian Ehrlicher

What os are you using? SetThreadDescription Is available since Windows 10: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/processthreadsapi/nf-processthreadsapi-setthreaddescription
Qt6 does not support anything older than Windows 10

The official release from https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/15.0/15.0.0/ is built with Visual C++.
You could try out the MinGW build from https://github.com/qt-creator/qt-creator/releases/tag/v15.0.0

It might work better than the Visual C++ one.

@Christian-Ehrlicher : microsoft windows server version 1607

@sungb That's too old.

Qt Creator 15.0.0 is using Qt 6.8 and the platform requirements are at https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/supported-platforms.html

Windows 10 (1809 or later)
