    Description

      1. Have an installation of Qt without any additional modules.
        Let's call this the small installation. I had Qt 6.8.0 for MinGW.
      2. Have another installation of Qt, now with some additional module.
        Let's call this the large installation. I had Qt 6.8.0 for MSVC2022 with Qt Quick 3D. This contains qtquick3d.qch which does not exist in the small installation.
      3. Make sure that C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\QtProject\Assistant does not exist.
      4. Start Assistant from the large installation.
      5. Select a documentation page from the additional module.
      6. Close Assistant.
      7. Start Assistant from the small installation.
        It shows the documentation page which you selected in step 5 although it does not exist in this installation.

      I think Assistant should only show documentation for the installation it was started from.
