v0.85 does not run on Windows Vista

Post by BaldrickTheGreat »

I just tried to run 3 versions of 0.85 on my Vista laptop: The installer, the 32-bit zip & the 64-bit zip. Non of them works.
The following error message pops up with all of them:

"This applikation failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows" in "".
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I went back to the 0.84 32-bit zip I have used before with no problems.

I don´t have time to fiddle with 0.85 so I´ll just post this just in case someone else have this problem & want to investigate a possible solution.

Aha, that explains it quite good. Time to get a newer computer I guess, but I´ll do fine with 0.84 for now. Keep up the good work.
