"krita-x64-5.2.0-setup.exe"
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: 5.2.0
Platform: Microsoft Windows

Status: REPORTED
Severity: major

SUMMARY: The file "FFmpeg.exe" is missing from the setup file of Krita 5.2.0
"krita-x64-5.2.0-setup.exe". The implications of this should be
self-explanatory.
################################################################################
Based on this report from @Konstrukto:
https://krita-artists.org/t/krita-5-2-is-released/75820/20?u=michelist
Quote:
"I’m not sure if this is connected but on the release client as well as the
current version the installation didn’t generate the ffmpeg file for me.
@Michelist kindly provided one for me, so I am covered, however there may be
others experiencing this issue
Also good to note because someone may not usually animate, and may discover
this later on."
I just unpacked the file "krita-x64-5.2.0-setup.exe" and found that the file
"FFmpeg.exe" is missing in the folder "bin".
In the archive of the portable version, however, the file "FFmpeg.exe" is
present in the folder "bin", so there is no need for action with the portable
version.
Since I only work with portable versions of Krita myself, I didn't notice this,
and I hadn't investigated the missing of the file "FFmpeg.exe" more deeply
during the RC phase, when @Konstrukto reported the same error there. Because of
his statement:
"Unfortunately I can't render my current animations with the old FFmpeg on this
krita version ...",
I thought he had deleted the new FFmpeg while handling the old FFmpeg.
I should have realized this at the time @Konstrukto reported the missing file
during the RC phase, that this could not have been the case.

Steps to reproduce this:
Either install the setup version of Krita 5.2.0 and then not find the file
"FFmpeg.exe" in the installation subfolder →
"c:\Program Files\Krita (x64)\bin\",
or extract the file →
"krita-x64-5.2.0-setup.exe",
for example, with the software "Universal Extractor", to a folder of your
choice and then not find the file "FFmpeg.exe" in the extracted subfolder "bin"
of the selected extraction folder.
Expected result: The file "FFmpeg.exe" would be located in the
"krita-x64-5.2.0-setup.exe" and thus could be installed with in the folder
"c:\Program Files\Krita (x64)\bin\".
This affects every version of Windows, so I spare you the data of my computer.
Without knowing your rating criteria, I have set the severity of the error to
"Major", please adjust this if necessary.
Regards
Michelist
