        Maybe You've already executed an instance on your IDE environment. Or, You used a shadow make, the executable file will be linked under shadow directory

        I just know coding and coding

            First thing: Please check whether the file you want to run was actually created. Go into your build directory and check that it is indeed where it should be.

                    So does H:\QtSDK\Demos\4.7\spectrum-build-desktop-Qt_4_7_4_for_Desktop_-_MinGW_4_4__Qt_SDK__Debug\spectrum.exe exist? Can you run it from the shell?
