Thanks. Unfortunately, it didn't go very far:

File C:\Qt\qt5\qtbase\src\corelib\mimetypes\mime\encode.ps1 cannot be loaded 
because running scripts is disabled on this system. For more information, see 
about_Execution_Policies at
https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=135170.
    + CategoryInfo          : SecurityError: (:) [], 
ParentContainsErrorRecordException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnauthorizedAccess

I know how to turn that off, but I needed Admin privileges to do that. I don't 
think it's going to be acceptable for a Qt build.

It's much easier to require people to install Perl.
