Error PRJ0019: A Tool returned an error code from "Running RCC on Resource.qrc"

Hi guys,

I have been handed the task to add a few extra features in an application written in VC++ using Qt to design the GUI. I tried building the .exe and I got the error Error PRJ0019: A Tool returned an error code from "Running RCC on Resource.qrc". As I understand RCC is the resource compiler which uses files with the .qrc extension.

I am new to all of this, even more so to Qt. So can anyone suggest what could be going wrong, so I have some ground to start my work?

Thank you!!

Do you have a full Qt development environment installed for your version of VC++ and Visual Studio?

Have you installed the Qt Visual Studio plugin?

Are the Qt executables (like rcc.exe, moc.exe, etc.) in your system PATH or have you configured Visual Studio to know where they are?

Thank you!! The executables were not present. It's my work computer and I expected them to have the required resources properly installed. The issue got fixed after I reinstalled Qt.
I apologise for spamming the other forums too.
