I had Qt Creator closed. I close generally all programs for an uninstalling.

The latter is somewhat more portable since OpenGL drivers have traditionally been problematic on Windows, but also prevents the full use of the OpenGL module.

I have now uninstalled:
qt-windows-opensource-5.0.2-msvc2010_32_opengl-x86-offline.exe
and installed with src components:
qt-windows-opensource-5.0.2-msvc2010_32-x86-offline.exe
and it is the same like I described in the first E-Mail.
So I wait for Qt v5.1.0 ;-)

But I have another problem with the 'UpdateInfo' plugin since yesterday.
I have disabled all possible plugins, run Qt Creator and enabled all plugins
like before. Now I get every time, when I start the Qt Creator, a plugin
loader message:
'Plugin initialization failed: Could not determine location of 
maintenance tool.
Please check your installation if you did not enable this plugin manually.'
and 'UpdateInfo' cannot be loaded. What can I do?
(During the test I got every time this message.)

Thanks,
     Thomas
