    hello, I installed Visual studio 2022, then I installed QT (msvc + mingw), but as I said, I can't run it, it gives all kinds of errors. I brought C++ Build 17 but nothing changed. What exactly should I do while installing?
    It cannot logically find the exe to run because the compilation is not working properly. I tried it in VS 2019 and it was the same on it.

    Build started...

    @HerrWinfried Have you installed Windows SDK?

    For more information please re-read.

    Kind Regards,

        @HerrWinfried This is the C++ standard you use. This does not answer @artwaw's question if you properly installed the WindowsSDK. The error you're showing us does not come from Qt but from a missing header file provided by MSVC / WindowsSDK - there is nothing Qt can do against this.

          Qt6 requires c++17. Try the following:
          To set this for a project:

          1. Right click a project, go to Properties
          2. Select Configuration Properties > C/C++ > Language
          3. For C++ Language Standard select "ISO C++17 Standard (/std:c++17)"

            Thanks for the info, I'll upload it again and have a look.
            The strange thing is that I can compile via QT Creator. however, an exclamation point appears next to it on the build screen.

            I mentioned it in the image above, it's already set like that. Thanks anyway.

              @HerrWinfried It might have been added to your project.
              Check your pro file and you may find
              CONFIG += c++17

              if you use cmake, it may have included
              set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17)

              But I am surprised that vs 2022 does not have c++17 as default

                  Perhaps, but you select an x86 debugger for a amd64 compiler. I don't thing this is valid configuration.

                      @HerrWinfried I guess Qt does not yet support C++ compiler from Visual Studio 2022.

                          Sounds like something that won't fix my problem in visual studio 2022. Thanks again for the information.

                            Visual Studio 2022 toolchain support/detection has been added into Qt Creator 6.0 (cf release note: https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-creator/qt-creator.git/plain/dist/changes-6.0.0.md)
                            First RC has been published at 11.11 (cf. https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-creator-6-rc-released)

                            Sounds like something that won't fix my problem in visual studio 2022. Thanks again for the information.

                            @HerrWinfried According to https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-vs-tools-for-visual-studio-2022 it should work, but I'm not sure about Qt itself.

                              That's the point that confuses me, but anyway, I prefer to wait a few weeks for now.

                                The problem is that VS2022 doesn't return by default the right value for

                                __cplusplus
                                

                                No idea if that's a bug or a feature in VS2022. However, here the solution how to overcome this issue:
