    Description

      When upgrading the MSVC Compiler, which can happen pretty often, Qt Creator is detecting that the compiler and linker do not exist on disk and try to set the new value as seen in the dialog below:

      Things seem to be back on track. Project compiles, until it stops.

      The system cannot find the path specified
      

      Is the error.

      By adding --verbose to the build step, we can see the command failing:
