Why does Qt.createComponent() fail when loading a local QML file?

QM • Qt Forum member • September 11, 2026 • 1 answers

A Qt Forum user could create QML components from qrc resources but received a network-style error when trying to load a local file dynamically.

qml

var url = Qt.resolvedUrl("E:/QT/abc/my.qml")var comp = Qt.createComponent(url)

Dheerendra suggested resolving the local Windows path as a proper file URL. The thread was solved after using the file:/// prefix.

qml

var url = Qt.resolvedUrl("file:///E:/QT/abc/my.qml")var comp = Qt.createComponent(url)
