C1083 - Visual Studio 2015 standard headers aren't detected
-
On a side note, when I installed Visual Studio and Qt, when I tried to run the plain program, it just said 'cannot find 'cl' did you set up your environment?
I might as well ask, is setting up my environment just going in my system environment variables and adding the path to my compiler ?
All I did was add the last two lines.
I'm working on windows 10 also, if that does anything.

That seems to describe you problem more clearly. Adding paths to the environment will probably not help you.
Have you checked QTCREATORBUG-17474?
-
Am I supposed to run vcvarsall in the cmd, I thought qt just did it when you start compiling. if I was to try it, what would be the syntax for the command?
Here are my settings, I know the error says it has no path for the compiler but that was after I removed the 2 lines from my system environment variables.
-
What if you start directly the command line through one of the shortcuts provided with Visual Studio ?
-
@jBesserer At least you have a hint now what could be the problem...

@aha_1980 I would like to share your optimism, but I mostly don't understand anything from the answers to 'fix' this problem. As soon as we go into cmd or system32 related things I lose track of where to go and what to do because I can't conceptualize how to fix it.

@jBesserer So what happens if you enter
regin a Command Prompt?Can you show us the contentes of your
PATHvariable? (as text please).Sometimes windows has problems traversing the
PATHif it contains an invalid directory. -

@jBesserer: Is it correct that you used the "Cross Tools" Command Prompt?
In a different vein, it is okay if Visual Studio installed 2 different versions of the 2015 redist for (x64) ? Could that also cause a conflict?
Honestly, I don't know. The only tip I can give you is to debug the vcvars.bat and maybe ask for help in a Visual Studio forum. As the
regcommand is available for you, it must be something else that disallows your compiler usage. -
@jBesserer: I just have another idea.
On http://www.randygaul.net/2016/06/03/faster-vcvars32-bat is a description on how to speed up the vcvars32.bit.
As the essence, he describes the variables that are set by this batch file. Maybe doing it like him gives you a running Visual Studio prompt that can also be used from Creator.

@aha_1980 I used the cross tool because i'm building with the x86_amd64 compiler in Qt...So I assumed that was how to do it. I don't really know.

I'm confused too. if you have a 64 bit OS and want to create 64 bit apps then you don't cross compile...
I cannot help further here, don't have Windows and no MSVC. Maybe someone else can. Sorry.

@aha_1980 Thank you very much for your earnest efforts in helping. :) I'm pretty much starting to assume that this is an internal network or user properties because when I try to install it anywhere at the University (my internship location) it doesn't compile and has always the same errors, but when I install it on my personal laptop and personal desktop, it compiles perfectly.
I looked around everywhere and compared left and right, but I couldn't find an answer. I wanted to just install a VM on work computer yesterday but vt-x is disabled in the BIOS and the university's admin added a admin password to the BIOS, so i'm pretty much out of options.
-
In that case, did you try to ask your university IT folks ?
