How to add a new version of QT to the official QT folder?
-
Hello, I have installed Qt and I want to add version 5.6.3 which will allow me to develop under Windows XP. I have downloaded the 5.6.3 open-source version.
First question : Can I transfer the files from this folder to my official QT folder where all the versions are ? (I already tried but there are so many files that it's hard to transfer everything)
Second question: And how to make the 5.6.3 version appear in the manage kit?Thanks for your help,

@Raphawel If you already have Qt installed - why don't you simply use Qt Maintenance Tool to install another version? You probably will need to enable archived versions in the Maintenance Tool to install such an old version.
And please be patient - this is user forum mainly driven by volunteers.

Thank you for your answer, and yes excuse me you are right, but I did not send another message in order to answer me quickly. It's just that after rereading I didn't know if my first message was very clear. But I was clumsy, sorry again :)
And in fact the maintenance tool does not propose this version even in the archives. It stops at QT 5.9.0.
And I took the 5.6.3 version to be able to program under windows xp -

To create a Kit for Qt 5.6 add first this Qt version and then create a Kit and select that Qt version.
