Solved How to update Qt Creator
-
@szerwi
Yes if possible -
@mrjj I got one more error. After few minutes another two errors. Is there any repair tool for Qt that I will be able to run it after installation?
-
@szerwi
Yes there is the maintenance.exe tool
Found in c:\qt
It can update etc so should get missing files.
But if some scripts are not run as it should , i think it might fail to work.
Error might be due to registry still being there but folder is gone. (was) -
@mrjj Ok, I'll try after installation. Do you know how to clear registry? I had about 5 more errors since last reply :/

@szerwi
Oh it dont sound good with errors.
I have not seen any clean tools.
Since you can normally have multiple Qts installed, i fear that
the image of the failed command is used for adding it.
Im "excited" to see if it can find your visual studio after. -
Ok, it installed. I will try to update components in maintenance now :)
EDIT: I think it's working well without any update :D -
@szerwi
Super
Fire up Creator and make a default GUI project and see if its happy :) -
@mrjj Yes, it's working excellent :) Thanks for help.
-
@szerwi
Super!
Happy programming then :)
Notice. If you want a debugger for VS. you need to install it extra.
(to use in Creator. If you use VS IDE, there is a debugger) -
@mrjj I use only Qt Creator, so I don't need visual studio or I do? :D
To use Visual Studio with Qt library I need to download only library and paste it to VS files?
Is the Visual Studio better than Qt Creator? -
@szerwi
Hi
I am talking about Visual Studio as the image you shown was installing Qt for vs 2013.
To use that one, you need to Vs 2013 installed. ( its not with the Qt packet)-
To use Visual Studio with Qt library I need to download only library and paste it to VS files?
No, there is a plugin that helps use .pro files with VS. So it links to the Qt. installed. -
Is the Visual Studio better than Qt Creator?
Well better is so hard to define. I like Creator a lot and have not used newer VS so much.
So i think its more a question of taste. VS IDE has many features. More than Creator. But
for me Creator have what i need. Also Creator offer in project Designer for GUI. The integrations in Vs
was not the same. But VS IDE also have many plusses.
That said.
Using the visual compiler ( NOT IDE) if often more fun than mingw on windows if you want to use
external libraries. They can be hard to build with anything but vs compiler. -
