I build pv5.9rc2 with vs2017x64 (qt5.12) on windows7 using the default configuration. However, when I run the application, the GUI show below:

How did you configure ParaView before building ?

The same problem for pv5.9rc3 (using QT5.14 and vs 2017 x64) on windows10 x64.

@cory.quammen: Looks like broken svg support.

Indeed. @lyz make sure there is a `qsvg.dll` file in your Qt installation. In the binaries we provide on [paraview.org](http://paraview.org), this is found under `C:\Program Files\ParaView 5.9.0-RC2-Windows-Python3.8-msvc2017-64bit\bin\imageformats`

As for the error messages, I think I see the problem in one of the XML files. Proposed fix here: [https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/merge\_requests/4642](https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/merge_requests/4642)
