Unsolved Please add verbose logging and more documentation to CtCreator build Problems.

[M.O.H]

Hi all,
in general I use CtCreator with MS Visual Studio (2017) build tools.
If I have installed all the tools new it runs just fine. But when I do some updates Qt or VS, I have to spend useless hours to get rid of problems like "```

D:\Qt\5.11.2\msvc2017_64\bin\qmake.exe" D:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.11.2\widgets\itemviews\addressbook\addressbook.pro -spec win32-msvc "CONFIG+=debug" "CONFIG+=qml_debug"
Error while building/deploying project addressbook (kit: Desktop Qt 5.11.2 MSVC2017 64bit)
When executing step "qmake"

Most of the time I have to reinstall all from the scratch. That is not cool actually.
What I have found was " \msvc2015_64\bin\qtenv2.bat".
But how and when does it get called, what happends when vcvarsall.bat isn´t found?
On which location are the CtCreator settings stored.
How to get rid of orphaned kits, (kits! not kids :P ).
It sucks enormous to waste time for nothing just because a lack of information.

@M.O.H If you want some improvements in QtCreator (not CtCreator) then you should go to Qt bug tracker and file a request there. This is a user forum, it does not make sense to request changes in QtCreator here.
