Cannot find <library path>: Permission Denied

@MrShawn It also appear under my build settings that the build configuration is Debug and the make is a mingw32-make.exe, so does that mean my library is suppose to be a debug .lib that is also x32 instead of x64? This is all quite overwhelming and confusing and sorry if Im being a hassle.

It needs to be the same as your app. If you build your app for 32 bit then the lib must be 32bit, if you build for 64bit then the build must be 64bit. You can't mix. Also, if you build in release mode then use the lib build in release mode.

@jsulm I actually ended up doing that now everything matches, but it says in documentation since im doing a static library i am suppose to put CURL_STATICLIB, i just cant find out where, here is the documentation.
Building your own application with a static libcurl
When building an application that uses the static libcurl library on Windows,
you must define CURL_STATICLIB. Otherwise the linker will look for dynamic
import symbols. -

@Laner107 Is your Qt installation broken? How did you install Qt? Did you search for that dll in your qt installation already?
-
@jsulm to fix it i literally had to copy all the .dll files in qt and paste them in the shadow build folder as well as all the plugins, do you know why i have to do this?
-
@Laner107 What exactly was the problem actually?
You could not build or you could not start your app? -
@jsulm I believe it was able to build but when i would start my app it would instantly crash, its now working though but like i said i had to had all the files to the shadow build.
@Laner107 If you want to start your app outside of QtCreator you need to deploy it properly first.
See https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/windows-deployment.html
