    Description

      On Windows, and using the Qt online installer, selecting the binary releases for mingw sneakily installs mingw itself.

      When the binaries are selected, no mingw compiler is automatically selected:

      But then the compiler is installed:

      But the funny thing is that mingw 9 (which seems to be installed, see screenshot) isn't even an available option on the online installer, and the binaries say they are for mingw 11.

      I already have mingw on my system. Can this be avoided?
