title: QT creator setup on windows
body: <p>Hey guys thanks for looking at this question. I am attempting to learn some UI programming and was hoping to use QT creator to get started. I am a babe in the woods for Qt Creator 4.6.0. And I can't seem to setup QT creator to work on windows 7. When I go to <em>manage</em> the project or tools>options>build and run I really don't know what to fill out?</p>
  
  <p>If all I do is create a new project and attempt to "build all" I get the error: </p>
  
  <pre><code>Could not determine which "make" command to run. Check the "make" step in the build configuration.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I found alot of post on how to fix this but I haven't figured out how to get them to work for me.</p>

  <p>I am attempting to figure out what exactly I am doing wrong. It might have something to do with not selecting the correct compiler and Qmake file? So far what I do is.</p>
  
  <p>Step 1: <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Jjrze.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Create New Project</a></p>
  
  <p>Step 2: <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Ue1Cz.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">I then go into kit selection</a></p>
  
  <p>Step 3: <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zH9XS.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">I select manage</a></p>
  
  <p>Step 4: <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/pu43O.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">select the Manual(desktop) nothing is automatically populated</a></p>
  
  <p>As for the rest of the tabs I have:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/7vAMK.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">compilers tab</a></p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/EvLjd.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">debug tab</a></p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/AS9C9.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">CMAKE tab</a></p>
  
  <p>After I setup all the tabs should I have a functioning project? </p>
  
  <p>Ok well after looking I guess there isn't a Qmake file installed with QT just to be clear on the installation I am wondering which of the boxes should I check during installation. It comes up like the following picture
