Exception thrown at 0x000000005207AAD7 (Qt5Core.dll)

I'm trying to run a Qt based program that I download from here (https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/tree/master/Examples%2FCustomApplications%2FClone1) on Windows 10, but I'm getting this error:

Exception thrown at 0x000000005207AAD7 (Qt5Core.dll) in paraview_clone1.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000008.

Unhandled exception at 0x000000005207AAD7 (Qt5Core.dll) in paraview_clone1.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000008.

What I did:

Open VS2015 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt and execute: cmake-gui with the path of my app.

Add:

Qt5_DIR = C:/Qt/5.9.9/msvc2015_64/lib/cmake/Qt5
ParaView_DIR =
C:\path\paraview\build\install\lib\cmake\paraview-5.7

Then:

configure
generate

Then in VS2015 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt I cd into C:\Users\Escape\Desktop\escape\build> and execute: ninja

I added some path:

set PATH=C:\...\paraview\build\install\bin;%PATH%
set PATH=C:\Qt\5.9.9\msvc2015_64\bin;%PATH%

Otherwise it wouldn't find the files:

pqComponents-pv5.7.dll
pqApplicationComponents-pv5.7.dll
pqCore-pv5.7.dll
vtkGUISupportQt-pv5.7.dll
Qt5Widgetsd.dll
Qt5Guid.dll
Qt5Cored.dll
Qt5Widgets.dll
Qt5Network.dll

Now, I get no errors but nothing happens when I execute paraview_clone1 in the terminal. Like, it loads something for a few seconds but then nothing.

If I run it with the Visual Studio 2015 Community I get the error:

Exception thrown at 0x000000005207AAD7 (Qt5Core.dll) in paraview_clone1.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000008.

The program '[4224] paraview_clone1.exe' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

I also run windeployqt paraview_clone1.exe which created several files but I still get the same result.

What's it's happening? How can I fix it?

I had the same error message on windows. In my case it was because I installed MiKTeX which also uses Qt5 dll files, but there was some sort of incompatibility. Luckily all I had to do was to remove MiKTeX path from the windows path environnement and it all worked out great after that.
