Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of QGIS 4.0.1.

What's new in this version:

- We are really pleased to announce the new major release of QGIS 4.0, which represents the successful culmination of a long-planned technical migration, transitioning the core of QGIS onto the Qt6 framework.
- On the surface, existing users should expect to engage with a GIS experience familiar to what they have come to know and love from previous QGIS releases. Under the hood, however, it introduces significant changes to maintainability and usability. These changes ensure that QGIS 4.0 can unlock additional access to modern libraries while bringing much-needed performance and security improvements to the codebase.
- To ensure a smooth transition for our vibrant ecosystem, we have retained deprecated APIs where possible, minimising the effort required for plugin developers to update their tools. While some legacy APIs (such as the Processing API from QGIS 2.x) will not be guaranteed future support and backwards compatibility throughout the lifespan of the QGIS 4.x series, developers supporting existing plugins can easily ensure their plugins are compatible with the new release using the Qt6 compatibility guide.
- While preparation for the QGIS 4.0 migration has been underway, the developer community has added over 100 new features across the application, making QGIS more powerful, more flexible, more secure, and generally just more awesome. Adjacent to developments associated with the codebase, the budding community of QGIS users has continued to share resources, including projects, styles, scripts, and more, leading to an exciting period of growth for the revamped QGIS Hub and associated community sites.
