No valid Kit

JKSH

A "Kit" is a compiler plus a compatible Qt library.

For example, you might install Visual Studio 2017 (from Microsoft) plus Qt 5.10.0 for MSVC 2017 64-bit (from the Qt installer)

What compiler(s) do you have/want to use?

@JKSH I have Visual Studio 2015

Then you need to install Qt for MSVC 2015 for a valid kit. Reboot after installation completes.

If you still don't have a valid kit after you install Visual Studio and Qt, post screenshot of:

Tools > Options... > Build & Run > Kits
Tools > Options... > Build & Run > Qt Versions
Tools > Options... > Build & Run > Compilers

@Eduardo12l To add to @JKSH : did you install C++ as well when installing Visual Studio?

Eduardo12l

@jsulm Yes, i installed it

jsulm

@Eduardo12l What about Qt for MSVC 2015?

Eduardo12l

@JKSH @jsulm I have problem i cannot install others opensource Qt .

I tried to install this one: qt-opensource-windows-x86-msvc2015_64-5.8.0 But when the installer is checking my logging suddenly it shows me a message "incorrect login credentials"

You don't need to enter login details. Just leave the username and password empty, then click "Skip" or "Next".

Also, is there a reason why you you want to use Qt 5.08 instead of the newer Qt 5.10?

Eduardo12l

@JKSH Oh, I didnt know if it was compatible with MSVC 2015 because it didnt says nothing about it. Well ill try it

Make sure you uninstall your previous files before you install another version. Otherwise, things might get confusing.

The Qt 5.10 installer contains many different copies of Qt, for many different compilers.

Run the installer, and skip login. Then, in the "Select Components" screen, expand all the options and select "MSVC 2015 32-bit" or "MSVC 2015 64-bit".

I am having the same issue. I want to create a simple desktop based app.
Here are the tools and their settings I have installed on my development system
-Qt Creator 4.5.0 based on Qt 5.10.0(MSVC 2015, 32 bit)

Visual Studio 2017

The Auto detect and Manual nodes under "build and run" are empty
As per the link below when I try to add the manual kit , it is not allowing me to add.
http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-targets.html

Due to this, I am not able to proceed and can't even create my very first app. Kindly reply in detail, how can I fix this .?

First, note the difference between "Qt Creator" and "Qt":

Qt Creator is the IDE.
Qt is the library.

I can see that you have installed Qt Creator 4.5.0, and you have installed MSVC 2017.

However, have you installed Qt 5.10.0 for MSVC 2017?

First, please read each post in this thread (https://forum.qt.io/topic/86980/no-valid-kit/ ) carefully.

Before you add a kit, you need to ensure you have valid entries under "Qt Versions" and "Compilers" first. (But actually, you shouldn't need to add any of these manually -- they should all be auto-detected)
