Where are the KIT choices for QtCreator stored
-
I have a project built with Qt5.15.2 and wanted to see if a problem I am having still exists in Qt5.12.2. I made a complete copy of my project directory and all subdirectories and went through the step to try to get the kit changed to Qt 5.12.2. I didn't have much luck so I gave up.
I went back to my original project and when I started qtcreator I had to choose my Qt version again even though I didn't change anything for that project.
Why did the original project change?
Thanks

Hi, and welcome!

Kit selections for a project are stored in the *.user file (next to your *.pro file or CMakeLists.txt file).

If all you wanted to do was to build your project with a different version of Qt, then you can do it in the same project directory without copying/moving anything.
Simply activate a different kit: https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-configuring-projects.html#activating-kits-for-a-project
