Hi everyone!

I have installed the SDK using https://sailfishos.org/develop/sdk-overview/develop-installation-article/ on a Windows 7 x64 (German) machine. While QtCreator is running and I can create myfirstapp. I have problems compiling and running the application:

in myfirstapp.qml: ApplicationWindow is underlined and says "Could not resolve the prototype 'Window' of 'ApplicationWindow' (M301)."
I can not run the SDK VM ("No virtual machine with the name "MerSDK" found ...')
I can not run the Emulator VM ('No virtual machine with the name "SailfishOS Emulator" found ...')

I installed:

VirtualBox 4.3.32r10443 (as Administrator)
Visual C++ 2010 redistributable for x86 (as Administrator)
SailfishOSSDK-Beta-1510-Qt5-windows-offline.exe (as regular user)

I pretty much only clicked through the setup. So

VirtualBox is in C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox
SailfishSDK in C:\SailfishOS

If I check with VirtualBox Manager it has the two VMs

MerSDK in C:\SailfishOS\mersdk\MerSDK
SailfishOS Emulator in C:\SailfishOS\emulator\SailfishOS Emulator

What can I do to make the IDE find it's files?

Thanks, Jörg

Thank you! This solves the problem.

I'm not sure if VirtualBox really needs to be installed as Administrator. My actual problem was, that the VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH was written to the system profile. That is only updated for regular users after a reboot. So actually rebooting solved my problem.

Maybe if VirtualBox (can be) is installed as user, the problem would not appear. I think, if someone has tried that, she can comment here, so the next one knows.

Thanks again, for your help.
