Cannot create QT Quick application (because no Supported platforms)

Which Qt have you installed? For MSVC or MinGW?

Thank you very much for your quick reply.
Cannot recall a choice of MSVC or MinGW.
Please check in the maintenance app (Start Menu -> type "maintain Qt" and click on "Uninstall Qt" app). If you have chosed MinGW, Qt will automatically install the compiler for you and it should all "just work".
If you choose MSVC you need to install the compiler separately from Microsoft and thus you can end up with no supported platforms in Qt Creator (because it can't find a valid compiler).
Should I have mentioned it is the community edition I downloaded?
No, that's not important.

Im completly new to QT and just installed QT(I omitted the mobile stuff).
Now I'm not able to create a project for a Windows desktop application in C++.
Thxs in advance for any suggestions
WolleAs you are new to Qt, I don't know if you are aware that
Qt Creator
is only an IDE.
To be able to create application with Qt Creator, you have to also install at least one Qt Kit (for example Qt 6.2.2 for MSVC 2019).
To install a Qt Kit, please use Qt Maintenance Tool. -
@sierdzio + @KroMignon: Thank you very much, seems I'm a step further now. Although the first screen doesn't report any availability of >>Desktop<< for >>Quick application<<, I can add MinGW support on one of the next wizard pages. Compilation and start of generated application successful.
Thanks for this awsome and swift response.
