    @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?

      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 :/

          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

                  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?

                      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.

                        Yes, I'm downloading new version. Unfortunately I didn't have any button to uninstall Qt so I've only deleted folder from computer :/
