I don't think so. Either you put it in \windows\system (I think) where
everybody can find it, or, if you want to distribute a binary LyX, you
bundle a version of the library. It might be even better for size to
link statically against qt (like LyX/Mac).

Now, for your own installation, of course, you do as you prefer...

That's fair

That's surprising.
