FYI, I forgot to mention, in the past, QT installs won't work unless you use a
QT Patcher program to fix internal paths in the builds so it is probably why it
does not work. The MSYS installer fixes the path for you when you install the
package.

Use QT packages that come with MSYS2, but you don't need it if you are not
compiling QT projects. See how to install them below:

Subject: C++ in Netbeans on Windows requires qmake.
#yiv5114882331 P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}I am running Netbeans 8.2. I am
also a 64 bit Windows 10 user.
I have learned that I cannot build my C++
projects without qmake working. However, I have learned
that the only way to obtain this from Qt seems to be via a huge 2Gb
download (or even larger).
It also seems that the open source Qt download has an installation
bug, but at any rate will not produce a built qmake for me.
I haqve tried using GNU Make for Windows, with no successs
from Netbeans?
Can someone please reply back to me
with a compatible, much smaller, version of qmake that will work with Netbeans
so that I can build my C++ code using the C++ plugin for netbeans, please?
Otherwise, can they link me to a Windows make utility that I can link to that
will allow Netbeans 8.2 to finish C++ building?
