Is it possible to create a single .exe file?
Unsolved
Installation and Deployment

I am trying to create a single .exe file.
I used the command: windeployqt <path to build>/debug
This resulted in a working .exe in the debug folder, but there are a lot of other files in there as well.
I would like to create a single .exe file, is that possible? -
Hi,
Yes it is. You have to build all your dependencies statically with taking into account all the licensing constraints that applies.

@SGaist How do I need to do that?
I've already looked into a static Qt builder with this tutorial and qt docs, but I get the error:mingw32-make : The term 'mingw32-make' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

I don't know how to fix this issue.
