Qt Installation not working

As far as I know there are trillions of questions like mine, yet I haven't found a solution yet.

So, here's my problem: I've installed Qt 5.4 downloading the 2 packages from http://download.qt.io/official_releases/.

The packages I've downloaded are:

because I'm working on a bloody Windows 8.1.

Now, the installation seemed to be working fine, and as soon as the process has ended I rushed to my Desktop folder and tried the ordinary "HelloWorld" application.

I tried to type in cmd "mingw32-make" and it outputed C:\Users\my_name\Desktop\hellllllo\main.cpp:1: error: QtWidgets: No such file or directory #include < QtWidgets>.

What strikes me is the fact that some Qt examples provided in the installation work fine, some others not. Please, give me a hint or a path to follow to set up Qt! Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I've also tried countless times to change variable PATH, but with no result.

  1. If qmake is not found, then PATH is incorrect.

  2. Regarding include's, the easiest way is to create qt.conf file. See http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qt-conf.html

P.S. Sample qt.conf

[Paths]
Prefix=..
Headers=include/qt5
