      Suppose I created application(a.exe) and used windeployqt to deploy.
      If I changed a single thing in UI file then again build it.
      We get the a.exe in the release folder.
      If I replaced older a.exe with new a.exe It still works with new features.
      Are there problem with these way?
      Can I use this method??
      I just want to update UI and not external files. Is it bad way???

      Let's make QT free or It will go forever

      TRUE AND FALSE <3

        Hi,

        If you only have an .exe file, then yes that should be enough. You would have to do more work if you add a new module.

          I mean I have changed Some text in the application. And just replacing exe works fine

          If you only have an .exe file,

          Yes just exe file and other are just dependencies ( it contain dependencies of QT and prebuilt dependecies)

          It is working fine So As you said I can do that

          Let's make QT free or It will go forever

          TRUE AND FALSE <3
