When I open my open source version after copying QTCreator 4.10.2 community version to C:\Qt\Tools\ and running the exe,
I don't believe that you understand what you are doing!
- You don't have to move installed software from one location to another, MaintenanceTool is there for that. To ensure software are installed in the right place
- According to your screen copy, you have select an UWP (Universal Windows Platform) Kit... Do you met the requirements? ==> https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/winrt-support.html

Ok, Can I install open source version from Maintenance tool? I understand that the paths are not set after i moved the installer location.
It is not able to locate the kit.
Thanks

@SachinBhat I would suggest you to completely cleanup your Qt installation to start for clean situation:
- remove everything from
C:\Qt
- cleanup your Windows profile:
removeC:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\QtProject
removeC:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\LocalData\QtProject
- download the online installer from Qt ==> https://www.qt.io/download-thank-you?os=windows&hsLang=en
- install only the Qt Kits your are really needing
- open you project with Qt Creator and configure it with the right kit (https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-configuring-projects.html)
- start build
This should work.
What I don't understand, is that you have build your project with an older Qt version (5.3.2). So you should have a basic knowledge about how Qt works, which don't seems to be the case.
- remove everything from

Hi,
@SachinBhat don't move stuff around like that. Part of the installation process is to ensure that paths are setup correctly so just going and putting stuff somewhere else on your drive is breaking things.
If you want to change the location of your installation, do as @KroMignon already wrote.
If you want to use the OpenSource version, skip the login details.

Thank you for this as this is what I was looking for. Even if i skip the login details I get this in Help/about Qt Creator
Will check what happens after the license is expired.
I did all the things just for this
Thanks

I am using an existing code base to add new features. So, as I said, I am new to this. Apologise if i have irritated you

No problem, I can understand that it is complicated to start with Qt. But if you have an existing Qt project, there must be someone how has wrote it. I think it would be easier for you to configure your workstation with his help

Unfortunately, the person who worked on this isn't in our team now. I would document my learnings so that it would be helpful for my team in future
Thanks for your diligent support.
I will mark this as solved

Hi,
The one which is downloaded using qt unified installer doesn't have open source version. I found the place where one can install the open source version here https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.14/5.14.0/
This is helpful for someone who is trying to find the open source version just like me
Thanks
