Visual Studio comes with cmake and ninja these days and sets them up in the 
environment when you run vcvarsall.bat.

$ which cmake ninja
/c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/BuildTools/Common7/IDE/
CommonExtensions/Microsoft/CMake/CMake/bin/cmake
/c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/BuildTools/Common7/IDE/
CommonExtensions/Microsoft/CMake/Ninja/ninja

Likewise, your typical MinGW build environment will have them too.

That means Qt Creator does not need to install them.
