      I've recently installed the last version of QtCreator and since then I have a serious problem with building every project. I can't compile both QtProject and normal C++ "Hello World".
      That's the error I get:

      "Could not start process "nmake.exe"
      Error while building/deploying project untitled (kit: Desktop Qt 5.4.1 MSVC2013 OpenGL 64bit)
      When executing step "Make" "

      The settings of compiler, debugger etc seem to be proper.
      Please help me with this problem.

        Can you see the call to nmake in the console? Maybe you can copy it and execute it in a terminal to see the error message. I remember I sometimes had problems with nmake not being in my PATH.

          @cybercatalyst Thanks for your answer.
          In the beginning I couldn't call nmake in console. After setting the path I get:
          "NMAKE: fatal error U1064: MAKEFILE not found and no target specified"

            can you execute from the build directory with the exact call?

              Hi and welcome to devnet,

              Do you have that error also with a project generated from Qt Creator ?
