    Indeed. previous versions of Visual Studio 2022 worked on Windows 7, you got a warning when you installed but you could proceed anyway, but now you get an error instead :-(
    You can still download Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition from here: https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vs_community.exe

      @crystalbit Sorry for asking. I am trying to compile qt dll myself on Windows 8.1.
      I have to use Visual Studio Build Tools 2022 17.6 instead of Visual Studio Community Edition 2022 since it's not available anymore on microsoft.com. I had to change PATH in compile_win.bat as vcvarsall.bat is in different folder. I get errors: mv, rm, perl is not an internal or external command.
      I have Strawberry Perl installed.

      @5taras If I understand correctly I need gnuwin32 package to run mv, rm commands from compile_win.bat which is missing in qt-build-tools folder from github. In script I see "SET PATH %ROOT%\gnuwin32\bin;"

        @hskoglund In any case I'd have to correct compile_win.bat as it is oriented for 2022 VS.

          I'm using the scoop package manager (https://scoop.sh/) to install Linux tools on Windows. I believe just installing scoop already gives you these basic commands. Another alternative is Chocolatey.

            @SimonSchroeder Did you try to compile qt library yourself? Scoop package manager creates folder "%ROOT%\gnuwin32\bin"?

              @5taras I've only ever compiled static Qt libraries for Windows with MSVC. Scoop does not provide "%ROOT%\gnuwin32\bin", but it provides commands like mv and rm. It also adapts the PATH environment variable such that these tools are available on any command line.

                  @SimonSchroeder During compilation I get a mistake "../configure is not an internal or external command". 6.x qt-build-tools folders from github are missing configure.bat file. What can I do?
                  I found https://github.com/crystalidea/qt-build-tools/blob/master/5.6.3/qtbase/configure.bat file which could be useful. I am not sure.

                      @jsulm You mean I should replace corresponding folders from qt official by folders from crystal's qt 6 build project?
