Description
example CMakeLists.txt file located in folder c:\cmakeTest
project(test LANGUAGES CXX) find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Core) qt_add_executable(test Main.cpp) qt_generate_deploy_app_script( TARGET test OUTPUT_SCRIPT script NO_UNSUPPORTED_PLATFORM_ERROR )
configure will produce

but installing will output
PS C:\cmakeTest\build> cmake --install . – Install configuration: "Release" – Writing C:/Program Files (x86)/test/bin/qt.conf CMake Error at C:/Daten/Qt/6.7.2/msvc2019_64/lib/cmake/Qt6Core/Qt6CoreDeploySupport.cmake:93 (file): file failed to open for writing (No such file or directory): C:/Program Files (x86)/test/bin/qt.conf Call Stack (most recent call first): C:/Daten/Qt/6.7.2/msvc2019_64/lib/cmake/Qt6Core/Qt6CoreDeploySupport.cmake:402 (qt6_deploy_qt_conf) .qt/deploy_test_c7f832ca98-Release.cmake:5 (qt6_deploy_runtime_dependencies) cmake_install.cmake:39 (include)
Which means qt_generate_deploy_app_script() tries to write to the install destination directory. But it should not do that, documentation at https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/cmake-deployment.html#deploying-a-qt-widgets-application clearly states:
The qt_generate_deploy_app_script() command generates the deployment script in the build directory
