[Qt-creator] Qt Creator Build Environment Windows 10 SDK

[Christian Bauer]

I might've found the problem. The following is copied from "dd_vsdevcmd16_env.log".

Laptop
========================
WindowsLibPath=References\CommonConfiguration\Neutral
WindowsSDKLibVersion=winv6.3\
WindowsSDKVersion=\

PC
========================
WindowsLibPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\UnionMetadata\10.0.19041.0;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\References\10.0.19041.0
WindowsSdkBinPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\
WindowsSdkDir=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\
WindowsSDKLibVersion=10.0.19041.0\
WindowsSdkVerBinPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.19041.0\
WindowsSDKVersion=10.0.19041.0\

Next I ran:
set VSCMD_DEBUG=3
vcvars64.bat > out.txt

Which results in this error:
"ERROR: Registry editing has been disabled by your administrator."

So if vcvarsall can't set Windows 10 SDK paths properly because of missing rights to access the registry then why is it working in Visual Studio 2019 directly?

And can there be a workaround that does not involve putting paths somewhere manually?

Hi, I’ve just tested it on both machines.
In Visual Studio 2019 -> Project properties -> VC++ Directories -> Include Directories all paths are listed (see screenshot).

Hey there!
I have the following problem regarding Qt Creator on Windows 10:
 
I installed Qt MSVC 2019 64bit and Visual Studio 2019 Community on 2 machines (PC and Laptop). 
I can compile and run simple test projects on PC, but not on Laptop where I get include errors.
 
So I checked my projects build environment for both machines (INCLUDE variable). 
 
PC:

 
Laptop:

 
I can now add those paths manually in project settings but I'd rather have them load automatically. Any ideas on how to get that running?
(I tried reinstalling Qt and Visual Studio twice already)
 


Well Qt Creator is just a hapless victim of whatever the running of vcvarsall.bat returns in the INCLUDE enviroment variable, so maybe on your laptop you have some 3rd party software that adds some stuff to it (just guessing :-)
You can try debug what happens when Qt Creator starts and vcvarsall.bat is run, open a CMD window:

c:
cd \Qt\Tools\QtCreator\bin
set VSCMD_DEBUG=1
qtcreator

Now wait for Qt Creator to start and just exit it directly. Qt Creator has run vcvarsall.bat but this time there are 2 trace files in your %TEMP% directory:
dd_vsdevcmd16_env.log and dd_vsdevcmd16_preinit_env.log

Post them here.
