              @Pablo-J.-Rogina Thanks for the hint, but that topic on SO is about the GLUT library. The OP needs the OpenGL header files.

                  On the windows command prompt, check if chcp can be located:

                  C:\Users\YourName> where chcp

                  If it can't be located, your PATH environment variable is broken.

                    @Wieland After running the command I got the below message
                    "C:\Windows\System32\chcp.com" and I added the "%SystemRoot%\system32" to environment variable
                    'chcp' is not recognized as an internal or external command issue fixed but still getting below error message

                    ""C:\Qt\Qt5.9.0\5.9\msvc2017_64\include\QtGui\qopengl.h:139: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'GL/gl.h': No such file or directory

                    Is there any other things to be done to get rid of the problem?

                        Hi @Pavanj,

                        So do you now have the file GL/gl.h on your system? If yes, please post the path where the file is located.

                        Thanks.

                        Qt has to stay free or it will die.
