    Qt Creatot -> my_project -> Right Click -> Add Library no longer works. It was working before and I had even added a few libraries, but for some reason it just doesn't show the Add Library window anymore. It's like that tab (Add Library) is deactivated/ inactive.

    What could be the issue?

    Thank you all in advance.

    Qt Creator 4.3.1

      Hi,

      Is 4.3.1 a typo ? The currently released Qt Creator is 4.3.0.

      In any case, what platform are you on ? What kind of project is it ? (qmake, cmake, etc.)

        @SGaist Help -> About Qt Creator -> Qt Creator 4.3.1 It's not a typo error.

        I can't add a library as I asked above. I've tried all types of projects, but to no success.

          Please file bug reports for issues like these! Most Qt developers do not read this forum, but we all read bug reports:-) I only stumbled over your post since it triggered by google alarms:-)

          This particular issue is https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-18263
