Hi @BenjaminHabegger, AFAIK, the pro.shared was never not thought to share build-related settings, as that would require to have the same Kits on each installation. It may work nevertheless. Have you read the sentence "Note: You must always specify the ProjectExplorer.Project.Updater.FileVersion variable and use the same value for it as in the .pro.user file." from your shared doc page? Have you compared the FileVersion with your pro.user file? However, to solve your original problem, you can vote for QTCREATORBUG-18414.
