    Description

      I cannot configure QPdf and QWebEngine because configure.bat thinks I do not have Visual Studio 2019 or higher, but I have Visual Studio 2022 installed.  I followed the instructions https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/windows-building.html and https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtwebengine-platform-notes.html.

       

      Here is the exact error message:

      WARNING: QtWebEngine won't be built. Build requires Visual Studio 2019 or higher.WARNING: QtPdf won't be built. Build requires Visual Studio 2019 or higher.

      It is also located near the bottom of the attached file `run-configure-err`.
