Hi,
Please, consider voting for:

https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-63708

Note, that if somebody wants to build Qt for 32-bit MSVC-2017 by
himself/herself,
cross compiler to be used since Qt-5.11 and up in line with the tips in:

https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-68462

Note, that since Qt-5.11, there's no option to build WebEngine with
any other compiler below  MSVC-2017.

IMHO, 32-bit Windows at Win-7 is still a mainstream, at least for the
nearest 4 years
till MS provides Windows 7 Extended Security Updates (ESU) through January 2023:

Thanks.

Kind regards,
