      very good thread, thanks
      i have some progress, but yet it does not work and give some error:
      first error, (This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin “windows”.
      Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.), is fixed with this way:
      in code of launcher i got the path of this file (here Deployment folder) as dynamically and send it to QApplication.addLibraryPath(path)

      but a new error occured: (i had it before, if you remember i looked for QML_IMPORT_PATH env for that but i reach to this point)
      QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component
      file:///C:/Users/Madoodia/Desktop/Deployment/test.qml:2 module "QtQuick.Controls" is not installed
      file:///C:/Users/Madoodia/Desktop/Deployment/test.qml:1 module "QtQuick" is not installed
      because i have this two line in test.qml file:
      import QtQuick 2.0
      import QtQuick.Controls 1.0

      what is this error?
      i put all folders of C:\Qt\Qt5.2.1\5.2.1\msvc2012_64\qml beside my app
      why give error?

      i should tell that when i run test.qml it runs, and window is appeared.
      (also, i have QtHidden yet)

      thanks for reply in advanced

        Have you talked to people at the PyQt mailing list?

        I am only guessing here: Maybe it's because you are not launching an .exe file. You are loading a Python script file, so maybe Qt is searching in the folder where python.exe is.

            At the beginning of mainLauncher.py, what does os.getcwd() return? What happens if you call os.chdir() to go to the deployment folder, before you start calling Qt stuff?

              os.getcwd() >>> C:\Users\Madoodia\Desktop\Deployment

              you mean this :
              path = os.getcwd()
              os.chdir(path)
              ?

              nothing
              i'm in deployment folder

                [quote author="madoodia" date="1398588817"]os.getcwd() >>> C:\Users\Madoodia\Desktop\Deployment

                you mean this :
                path = os.getcwd()
                os.chdir(path)
                ?

                nothing
                i'm in deployment folder[/quote]Yes, that's what I meant. It didn't work though...

                Ok, try playing around with QQmlEngine::addImportPath() or QQmlEngine::addPluginPath() (see http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qqmlengine.html) -- these are like QApplication::addLibraryPath().

                If you used a QQuickView, you can get the engine by calling QQuickView::engine()

                  hey there
                  yes
                  i work with this and i got the good results.
                  and i find the way.not Portable PyQt5 but i can find more thing that i will document all off that in these days.
                  but a new problem occurs.
                  my program works fine in my labtop.
                  i switch to pyinstaller to make it executable and i had infinite problems.
                  i solved all off them too.
                  but there is a big problem that i could not solve it yet.
                  i changed program to one exe file and it works in my labtop fine.
                  but when i transform it to another clean pc or clean VM it does not work and give this error (again):
                  This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin “windows”.
                  Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
                  :)
                  this error want to kill me...
                  any feedback welcome.
                  thanks again

                    Load your .exe with Dependency Walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/ ) and choose Profile -> Start Profiling.

                    That will show you where it's searching for DLLs.

                    [quote]i switch to pyinstaller to make it executable[/quote]The search paths for the .exe file might be different from the .py file

                      i did that an find that all Loading is between two same commands,for example one line of LoadLibraryW ... some other lines...again LoadLibraryW

                      and this is result:
                      LoadLibraryW("C:\Users\vm1\AppData\Local\Temp_MEI26242\qt5_plugins\platforms\qwindows.dll") called from "QT5CORE.DLL" at address 0x00000000600C85EF.
                      Loaded "QWINDOWS.DLL" at address 0x000007FE3F840000. Successfully hooked module.
                      Loaded "WINMM.DLL" at address 0x000007FE44B80000. Successfully hooked module.

                      LoadLibraryW("C:\Users\vm1\AppData\Local\Temp_MEI26242\qt5_plugins\platforms\qwindows.dll") returned NULL. Error: The specified module could not be found (126).
                      what do you find from this?
                      the bold snippet in dependecy graph has red color.
                      look likes load successfully but...

                          There is 5 DLL that should be loaded:
                          QWINDOWS.DLL
                          WINMM.DLL
                          OLEAUT32.DLL
                          LIBEGL.DLL
                          WINMMBASE.DLL

                          i don't know how should i read the address of them:
                          Loaded “QWINDOWS.DLL” at address 0×000007FCC8CF0000 ...

                          you know?

                            i find this 3 files in windows/system32
                            WINMM.DLL
                            OLEAUT32.DLL
                            WINMMBASE.DLL
                            that i think should be shipped with exe file.

                            and this to is shipped with file
                            QWINDOWS.DLL
                            LIBEGL.DLL

                            and i think it can't use it because it don't have permission to access to them.
                            :(
