    Hey guys, thanks for your replies :) @Jeroentjehome said: There are multiple topics already for this, but here goes again: Sorry 'bout that. This information should probably be specified when downloading/installing Qt... Hopefully they will do something about it. @Jeroentjehome said: Install MSVC201x version (which one you need) (sigh) See, this is kinda the problem I'm having when trying to figure this out... What (exactly, with 100% accuracy) is it I need to install? Googling "msvc2012 download" redirects me to "Download Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio ..." but downloading and installing that does not fix it. Neither does downloading "Visual C++ Compiler" of any version. @Chris-Kawa said: Hi, welcome to devnet Thanks! @Chris-Kawa said: ... so you do need to install Visual Studio. A free Express (for VS2012) or Community (VS2013) edition will suffice. Also when installing it choose non-standard installation and deselect anything you don't need. Aha! This is crucial information. For new developers, this is far from obvious. Installed Visual Studio 2013 and now its working, thanks :) I won't mix, this is hard enough as it is (thats what she said) Cheers
