--- Comment #1 from Sebastian Gottfried <sebastiangottfried at web.de> ---
Since the whole user interface of KTouch is realized with QML it looks like the
initialization of the QML view failed ('main.qml' is, as the name suggests, the
central UI component pulling in all the other bits). This fits nicely with the
console output you've have posted, it seems that the QML engine cares about
capitalization of the used paths even on Windows. 

The thing is KTouch obtains the path to 'main.qml' the usual way, that is via
`KGlobal::dirs()->findResource("appdata", "qml/main.qml")`. So if my theory is
correct the issue is most likely a kdelibs bug.

Since I don't have an Windows development environment around I can't confirm
this myself in the near future. I would be very grateful if someone from the
KDE on Windows team would find some time to investigate what's up with
KStandardDirs::findResource on Windows.
