I used the online installer to install Qt 5.15.7.
Running my application in Release mode from Qt Creator worked fine.
When I attempted to run it in Debug mode, I get the following System Error dialog:
I searched my bin directory (C:\Qt\5.15.7\mingw81_32\bin) for Qt5Cored.dll, but it's completely missing any and all DLL files:
Does anyone know where/how to install the debug dll files for Qt?
There is a chance that they are not available for non-commercial license, although if you have it just look for debug symbols in Qt installer as they might be distributed separatelly.

When attempting to build my Qt project with MSVC2015 64bit for Windows 10, I get this error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.19041.0\um\Ole2.h:37: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'objbase.h': No such file or directory

-- when nmake is invoked during the build process.
This exact same error also occurs for the example project "addressbook".
It appears to be some kind of toolchain issue, but I can compile a Qt Widget project in Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 if I point VS at my Qt installation.
I'm not sure what I need to do from here, since I already tried a reinstall of Qt. I have seen that putting things in Program Files is generally a bad idea, but that doesn't seem to be the issue in this specific case.
It appears to be part of the Windows SDK, if Google leads me right. However, I did not have to download the Windows SDK separately in order to compile my project and run it successfully before. (For context, the project's been developed for a few months and this problem only emerged a week or so ago).
My QT Installation:
Kit: Desktop Qt 5.15.2 MSVC2015 64bit
Version: Qt 5.15.2 MSVC2015 64bit
Compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 17.3.32811.315 (amd64)
Things That Have Happened Before My Build Attempt:
I recently reinstalled Qt 5.15.2 in an effort to resolve a similar missing file issue.
The company's recently had issues with Microsoft Intune deleting applications. Maybe it hit the Windows SDK too.
Attempts at Solving the Issue
Reinstallation of Qt 5.15.2
Expected: My project building without errors. Result: This error.
Search of file system for objbase.h
Expected: Finding the file. Result: I did not find the file.
I'm newish at Qt, so I didn't want to try anything more esoteric lest I made things worse than before.
Update: MinGW 64 bit works for the example Qt projects, but I'd still like to use MSVC2015 if possible. It doesn't work for my project because I use some MSVC specific pre-processor flags in my source.
Update 2: I attempted to re-download MSVC 2015 from Visual Studio's website, using their Build Tools installer. While the installation successfully finished, I got no change from before -- it still can't find that "objbase.h" file. It's supposed to be in the Windows Kits directory under Include//um , I think.
It appears that, in my case, the objbase.h file was deleted due to the issue with Windows Defender deleting random files. I was able to reinstall the version of Windows SDK that was using and this fixed the issue for me.
I figured it out. I'm posting the solution here for others.
My issue was that, for reasons that are unclear to me, VS Studio Build Tools would not actually remove the SDK in question if I unchecked its box in the Modify screen. You can tell if this is happening by checking the disk size difference of the upcoming installation in the lower right of the screen -- if it won't remove the SDK, that size will be +0 bytes (assuming you don't check or uncheck any other box).
In order to properly reinstall the SDK version, I had to go to "Add or remove programs" and find the SDK there, uninstall it, restart my computer just for safety, and then go to VS Build Tools and install that SDK version. I had to do a "fake" uninstall with VS Build Tools (basically, uncheck the now-deleted SDK and click "Modify", allowing it to do the installation and download steps) before I could actually install the SDK again.
Am trying to compile project found at uconfig, I managed to compile the application successfully using 32bit version mingw, yet when I run the .exe I get this error The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b), I moved all the required DLLs required to exe path but still getting same error,
on the other hand, the application starts in debug mode in Qt creator normally
After searching ... the reason was I had another verion x64 of Qt installed and /bin was added to system path. this resulted in conflict between DLLs generated from Qt and ones found in the System path
I fixed the same problem by running them as adminstrator (properties/compatability/Run as Admin)
MMMMMM#unbuntu:~/QT/test4Qml$ qmlscene main.qml
qmlscene: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmlscene': No such file or directory
My Qt Development Environment does not have qmlscene. I googled it, and I only found *.deb. How should I do it?
As far as I know, Qt is not installed by default in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4. That directory is the default path when linux detects a dependency which requires Qt.
Where did you installed Qt? How did you installed it? Did you set the PATH environment variable to where Qt binaries are installed?
Usually, you have to follow the next steps:
1.- Install the the basic requirements for building Qt applications.
2.- Download Qt. I recommend Qt 5 using an offline installer. Otherwise, you'd need to compile from the source. Here you have a list of older versions of Qt.
3.- Set the environment variable PATH to the directory where you Qt bin directory is installed.
I am trying to build an QT application with version 5.4.
and when ever I am trying to run the exe on a different machine where QT is not installed I am getting below error "The program cannot start because QT5core.dll is missing from your computer, Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem".
and when I copied QT5core.dll with the exe in a machine where QT is not installed its working fine.
Is there any way that I can link QT5core.dll with the exe statically so that whatever place I run this exe it should not ask for any dll.
Thanks,
Tushar
You can build a standalone version of your Qt application so that it doesn't have any library dependencies at runtime. Be warned though: this can greatly expand the size of the .exe generated and the compilation time. Have a look here:

and here:

I have just purchased a Macbook (yes I am a complete noob on Mac though I have some considerable experience with Linux) and I'm trying to build my Qt application on it. I have installed XCode and the Qt SDK but when I try to build my project on Qt Creator all I get is the following error during qmake:
Running build steps for project TimeTracker...
Starting: "/usr/bin/qmake" /Users/raphaelcruzeiro/Documents/Projects/Timely/Widget/TimeTracker/TimeTracker.pro -r -spec macx-g++
Failure to open file: /Developer/Applications/Qt/Makefile

The process "/usr/bin/qmake" exited with code %2.
Error while building project TimeTracker (target: Desktop)
When executing build step 'qmake'
Any ideas on what is going on? /Developer/Applications/Qt/Makefile indeed does not exist.
EDIT:
Ok, I know what is going on but I don't know how to fix it. When I ran qmake from the terminal everything went just fine. I believe that Qt Creator is trying to build my application on the Qt directory itself and it does nt have permission for it (it shouldn't anyway).
How do I tell Qt Creator where to build my application? I didn't find it anywhere and setting the DESTDIR variable isn't helping.
THE SOLUTION:
Deleting the .pro.user file made Qt Creator build the application to the directory specified in DESTDIR

I was battling with the same thing. What helped eventually was resetting the default build directory here:
