      1. Start Creator with parameter "-tcs".
        This shall give you temporary clean settings. (Is this what the acronym is for?)
      2. Click "Link with Qt".
      3. Select a Qt version and click "Link with Qt".
      4. Click "Later".
      5. Quit Creator.
      6. Start Creator with parameter "-tcs".
        This should give you temporary clean settings, but it doesn't anymore. Creator is linked with Qt from step 3 because that is stored in the build/installation directory instead of in the usual settings.

      Saving the linked Qt version to "share" instead of the respective settings directory seems wrong to me. It means that:

      • User will still get the same linked Qt versions when using different settings.
      • User will not get the linked Qt versions when using the same settings on a different build of Creator.
