Error running qtcreator 15.0

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

[cristian-adam]

@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)
