My system: Windows 8.1 + TeX Live 2016 + TXS 2.12.0

Do the next steps:

Options / Configure TeXstudio / Build / Default Compiler: Latexmk / OK
Wizards / Quick Start / OK
Tools / Commands / PDFLaTeX

Then latexmk runs and not pdflatex!

    looks rather like a set-up problem on your side (options/command)

    I use a "virgin" set-up! Before using the texstudio.ini was deleted. So I don't think that it is a set-up problem.

    What's the exact pdflatex command at Options Commands?
    What's the output on the Messages panel?

    pdflatex command:
    pdflatex.exe -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex

    the output:

    Process started: latexmk -pdf -silent -synctex=1 "texstudio_zF4856"

    Latexmk: Run number 1 of rule 'pdflatex'

    Latexmk: Log file says no output from latex

    the messages indicate that pdflatex runs and latexmk fails.
    Again, looks like set-up problem with texlive. txs only start the programs...

    and if indeed latexmk fails and not pdflatex, make sure that bpth perl.exe and tl/bin/win32 are part of PATH (or added search path in txs)

    There isn't any problem with texlive. TXS2.11.2 works fine. This bug is only in TXS 2.12.0.

    Please try the next steps:

    Options / Configure TeXstudio / Build / Default Compiler: Latexmk / OK
    Wizards / Quick Start / OK
    Tools / Commands / PDFLaTeX

    In my opinion, this bug causes the following incident, too:

    (System: TXS 2.12.0 with original texstudio.ini, I didn't change anything in it.)

    Type this:

    \documentclass{article}
    \begin{document}
    text
    \end{document}

    Then

    Tools / Commands / XeLaTeX (or LuaLaTeX)

    The bug:

    pdflatex runs and not XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX!

    I think it is very discomposing effect.

    Remark: The second compilation works fine. (I don't understand, why?)

    assuming it is the bibtex call
