    #!/bin/hi *

    I've just installed Qt Creator 4.2.1 (Community) inside a Windows 7 64Bit VirtualBox instance. Everything seems fine, but when I launch it, Windows Aero suddenly is disabled and the program crashed. Afterwards Windows Aero enables it again and Windows asks me to send a crash report.

    Running from with cmd.exe does not spill out any extra information:

    [code]
    C:\Qt\Tools\QtCreator\bin\qtcreator.exe
    [/code]

    does not yield anything.

    What can I do?

      Hi
      Disable Welcome screen so u dont need openGL running
      https://forum.qt.io/topic/36827/qt-creator-3-0-welcome-mode-not-working-in-virtualbox-vm

      as in
      qtcreator -noload Welcome -noload QmlDesigner -noload QmlProfiler

      If that works, its jsut good old openGL.
      You can then

      1. fix openGl
        or
      2. use the About Plugins to disable it perm. ( In Creator)

        Hi, thank you.

        Sorry for the late reply, but unfortunately I was not mailed about your answer.

        The tip succeeded and I can start QtCreator with the parameters you applied. However, I do not know which Plugins to disable.

        Thx!

            Thank you very much! Disabling the Welcome Plugin did indeed fix my problem! =)

            Solved!
