qmake -project -tp vc Project ERROR: Cannot run compiler 'g++'.

ellaine

I want to make a .sln project that I can open and develop with Visual Studio (community 2019). The project build and runs fine in QT but when I run in my command prompt:
qmake -project -tp vc
this is the output I get:

Project ERROR: Cannot run compiler 'g++'. Output:

===================
Maybe you forgot to setup the environment?

The project is pretty much just a copy and paste of the widget application example project.
Any guidance would be appreciated, thank you!

@ellaine You should make sure qmake you're calling is the one from Visua Studio Qt, not MinGW Qt. Use an absolute path.
