Closed talgh closed 2 years ago

talgh commented 2 years ago

It is not possible to install the Qt VS Tools for Visual Studio 2017 (I have installed Visual Studio 2017 express edition in my PC, Windows 10)

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Download the "qt-vsaddin-msvc2017-2.9.1-rev.06.vsix" file
  2. Click on it tor run on my PC
  3. I get the message "the extension cannot be installed due to prerequisites" and I cannot mark the check box under the caption: "Select the product you want to install the extention to".
  4. In this point the only option I have is to cancell the installation process...
