    Description

      1. Use the MaintenanceTool to add the component "Qt Graphs" to an existing installation.
      2. Restart the MaintenanceTool.
        You'll find that now also "Qt Quick 3D", "Qt Quick Timeline" and "Qt Shader Tools" are installed, see QTBUG-126589.
      3. Uncheck "Qt Quick 3D" and let the MaintenanceTool finish the removal.
      4. Restart the MaintenanceTool.
        "Qt Graphs" was silently removed from the installed components. Its examples and docs are gone.
      5. Check the installation's bin directory.
        Qt6Graphs.dll, Qt6Graphsd.dll, Qt6GraphsWidgets.dll and Qt6GraphsWidgetsd.dll are still there.

      The list of components in the MaintenanceTool does not match the installed binaries and therefore doesn't allow removing them.
