I found similar bug, but couldn't reopen it. I installed KDE 4.4.0 on Windows XP x64 SP2, using MSVC 32bit packages. In temporary folder there is file: poppler-vc90-0.12.2-bin.tar.bz2 According to http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-windows/2009-November/004459.html I downloaded and extracted this file http://winkde.org/pub/kde/ports/win32/releases/stable/latest/openjpeg-1.3-1-bin.tar.bz2 but this lead to crash of okular after opening any PDF file (unhandled win32 exeption), debugger shows access voilation in malloc.c). I suppose it is installation bug, and I have manually downloaded incorrect package. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #212465 +++ Version: 0.9 (using 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0), MS Visual Studio 2008 SP1) Compiler: cl.exe OS: Microsoft Windows (unknown) release 6.1 Okular doesn't open PDF files in the KDE 4.3.1 and KDE 4.3.2 builds for Microsoft Windows, when trying to open them on Windows 7 (Release Candidate build 7100). Other files are fine (at least the JPGs I tested). I uninstalled all the files, then downgraded to KDE 4.3.0, and now it works fine. I'd say the culprit is poppler 0.12.0, shipped in since 4.3.1 release. In the 0.12.1 release notes they say they fixed a lot of WIN32 issues, which might be related to this problem.

Same problem with the KDEwin 4.4.0 version of okular on the 32-bit version of Windows XP.

Okular seems to open PDFs just fine in KDE 4.5.4.
