    Description

      Yesterday I installed the Open Source binaries along with Qt Creator.  When I click on the Qt Creator icon to start the app, it starts, but the menu items are grey and none of the windows display.  The only way to quit the app is with Force Quit.

      I then started Qt Creator from the command line with the following argument:

      '-temporarycleansettings' and everything started up normally, with the menus working and the windows displaying.  I made a couple of settings changes hoping it would establish a new profile, but when I tried starting it again normally, it gave me the same initial results.

      I am running macOS Catalina 10.15.7, with the latest version of Xcode and all recent patches/updates applied to the system.
