    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:

              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?

                  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 .?

                      • Visual Studio 2017

                      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?

                      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, 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)
