<![CDATA[Unable to select valid kit]]>Hello,

I'm sorry if this is a newbie question, but I have been trying for many hours with unsuccessful attempts. In the Qt program, when I try to create a Qt widgets application, I go through the steps, but then when I get to kits, it says "No suitable kits found".

I have tried installing mingw64, but atlas that did not work. I have tried using QT inside a linux virtualbox, but I couldn't get that to work. Any help is appreciated.

In the same way you installed MinGW in Qt Maintenance Tool...

If you already installed Qt for MinGW then set it manually in this Kit, else install Qt for MinGW first.

I did install MinGW

How exactly?
Do you have any warnings/errors in that Kit?

I installed via the Qt Maintenance Tool; I get the following error: https://imgur.com/a/9UAhzwH

So, open Qt Maintenance Tool, select Qt for MinGW and make sure latest MinGW version is selected under Tools.
