    Hallo,

    i just downloaded Qt 6.7 beta 1 on Windows 10 and compiled my project.

    I sadly noticed 2 problems:

    1. The Windows11 style doesn't work.
      In the changelog i read, that there is a new style called windows 11.
      I read the QStyleFactory::keys() and saw that there are all 4 versions: windowsvista, fusion, windows and windows11.
      I can run my application with arguments "-style fusion" and "-style windows". That is working fine.
      But "-style windows11" doesn't work or it look exactly like the windowsvista style.
      Any ideas what i am doing wrong?

    2. windeployqt deosn't work. I get the message:
      "Unable to find dependent libraries of C:\fet-6.13.0\fet.pro :DOS header check failed."

    Any idea what i am doing wrong?

      Why should a style made for windows 11 work on windows 10?

        hmm.. windowsvista style also worked on Windows 10.
        So i thought it is only a style that look like windows11.
        So it is "more" then just a style and that is why it doesn't run on windows10?

          I don't see why a style built for an older windows version should not work for a newer.

          When a program uses features only available in a specific version of an os how should this work on an os where such a feature is not avialable (= older version of the os)?

            @Christian-Ehrlicher I am sorry. I wasn't aware that the style use new features of the new OS. I thought a style is only imitating the look. I am sorry for bothering you. Thank you for your help.

              The windows style (and also e.g. the gtk and mac style) is using windows api to draw the elements so they look native. Otherwise you could use the windowsvista / 11 style on linux and the gtk style on windows and the mac style on linux and windows.
