Hi, everyone! I've updated Qt Creator to 4.5.0. I'm on Windows, using Qt 5.7.1 MSVC2013. When running the basic Qt console application, as-is from the template (just create QCoreApplication and exec()), usually the terminal opens, nothing actually happens (main is almost empty, so...), then the line "Press <RETURN> to close this window..." appears nad the window stays there waiting for <RETURN>. What happens now is that the terminal opens, the "Press <RETURN> to close this window..." line doesn't appear and I have to force-close the app. It looks like the app "message loop" is still running, so the app won't terminate. Other related behavior, with a more structured app, when I exit for some reason (e.g. I print the command line help then exit) the terminal closes without promting the "Press <RETURN> to close this window..." line, so I can't actually see what happened. Here, I forcefully close the app (e.g. via a quit()), so I don't get stuck like in the previous example; but I'm (really!) missing the "Press <RETURN> to close this window..." line. What's happening? Did I lost some launch configuration? Thanks! MIX

Hi Not sure if we think about the same command prompt, but ill just mentioned it anyway Try flipflop it.
