Hi.

Igor,
From what I understand, you need to create another directory in the same directory as your executable called platforms and put the qwindows.dll there, otherwise it won't work. I felt this was a little clunky when switching from Qt4 to Qt5. I think I read somewhere that there is a way to change the location but it has issues also.

Make it look like this:

myapp.exe
platforms/qwindows.dll

I've found the explanation of deploying Qt binaries on windows here:

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/windows-deployment.html

I did like you said. And now I have the next error message:

"This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows".

Available platform plugins are: minimal, offscreen, windows.

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."

What wrong now?

    Hi.

    How to correct ship Qt binaries (dlls and plugins) for Win 7 platform
    (MSVC 2013)?

    I've copied all neccessary Qt dlls to the directory with
    executable. In
    that directory I've created "plugins" directory and copy there all
    plugins with subfolders. I.e., for example,
    "plugins/platforms/qwindows.dll"...

    But when I launch my app on the macine that doesn't have Qt
    installed I
    receive following error:

    "This application failed to start because it could not find or
    load the
    Qt platform plugin"windows". Reinstalling the application may fix this
    problem".

    Thanks.
