Hi Hamish, as you probably guessed already, the error occurs when a project built as a windows application uses int main(int argc, char** argv) as an entry point. You can link to QtEntryPoint to fix that, see here: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtentrypoint.html

My console applications build and run fine, but my widgets applications fail to link with an error (Windows, VS 2022): 1>MSVCRTD.lib(exe_winmain.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol WinMain referenced in function "int __cdecl invoke_main(void)" (?invoke_main@@YAHXZ) I have a traditional entrypoint: int main(int argc, char* argv[]). I see in Qt 5 there was a magic helper library qtmain, but this does not exist in Qt 6. If I add the linker flag /ENTRY:mainCRTStartup then it builds. What's the correct Qt solution for this though?
