It seems to be possible at least in some environments under Windows 111 according to this thread. Little detail on the required sacrifices to the Windows deities.

A future version of Windows in 100 years time? ;-)
I would ask @GargDivanshu what version of Ubuntu he is installing and whether it wouldn't be easiest if he accepted the version of Qt issued with that Ubuntu rather than building one? But we don't know what Ubuntu or where he got/chose Qt 5.7 from....

@GargDivanshu
If you can upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 that seems to come with Qt 5.15, for you to verify? Else I imagine you will need to build Qt 5.15 yourself. -

and install QT 5.15.2 into /opt/Qt
Does the download include binaries already built for Ubuntu, like the Qt version you get from Ubuntu repo, or is it just sources you need to compile yourself?
