How to install Qt

I have to install Qt on windows to create apps using C++. The problem I'm facing is that after installing qt-win-opensource-4.8.3-vs2008.exe and qt creator many of the things were abrupt. On opening qt-creator, it does not finds any examples: "Examples not found". Similarly, there is no analyze option in the menu bar of Qt creator. Can somebody help me out on how to install Qt SDK and creator on windows.

You can still download Qt SDK from CNET. After you've installed it, you can launch Maintain Nokia SDK from the Start Menu, and you can change the toolchain from Visual Studio to MinGW, as debugging doesn't work with Visual Studio toolchain.

See the question I had about QtCreator not even finding Qt. Use

qmake -query

to view qmake executable variables. Make sure QT_INSTALL_EXAMPLES and QT_INSTALL_DEMOS are set in order to be able to access to the example.

The analyzer is not delivered along with Qt and has to be downloaded separately. However Valgrind does not work on Windows.

From the Qt Documentation:

In addition, Qt Creator integrates Valgrind code analysis tools for detecting memory leaks and profiling function execution. These tools are supported locally only on Linux and Mac OS. You can run them on a remote host from Windows. You have to download and install them separately to use them from Qt Creator.
