          Thank you very much for your quick reply.

          Cannot recall a choice of MSVC or MinGW.

          Should I have mentioned it is the community edition I downloaded?

            Thank you very much for your quick reply.

            Cannot recall a choice of MSVC or MinGW.

            Please check in the maintenance app (Start Menu -> type "maintain Qt" and click on "Uninstall Qt" app). If you have chosed MinGW, Qt will automatically install the compiler for you and it should all "just work".

            If you choose MSVC you need to install the compiler separately from Microsoft and thus you can end up with no supported platforms in Qt Creator (because it can't find a valid compiler).

            Should I have mentioned it is the community edition I downloaded?

            No, that's not important.

              As you are new to Qt, I don't know if you are aware that Qt Creator is only an IDE.
              To be able to create application with Qt Creator, you have to also install at least one Qt Kit (for example Qt 6.2.2 for MSVC 2019).
              To install a Qt Kit, please use Qt Maintenance Tool.

              It is an old maxim of mine that when you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (Sherlock Holmes)

                @sierdzio + @KroMignon: Thank you very much, seems I'm a step further now. Although the first screen doesn't report any availability of >>Desktop<< for >>Quick application<<, I can add MinGW support on one of the next wizard pages. Compilation and start of generated application successful.

                Thanks for this awsome and swift response.
