I tried the non-installer exe version (32 &64bits) because that csv loading sounded very interesting, but cant make it work without installation because sqlite3.dll, qt5network.dll, qt5xml.dll nor qt5printsupport.dll can't be found.

I don't see the point of providing a standalone exe version that does not work?

Well, back to excel for csv :/



All of those DLLs are included in the same zip file as the portable exe. Sounds like you may be trying to run it without extracting first.


I can see them but somehow it does not find it being next to it.

Don't know if it is a windows policy I am not aware.


How are you unzipping the .zip before running the .exe?

It sort of sounds like you're double clicking on the zip? I'm not personally sure if that unzips the whole folder in the right way or not.

If that's what you're doing, maybe right click on the .zip and extract everything using that first?

Note that I don't personally use windows much any more, so my windows knowledge is getting rusty for some stuff. ;)

Which download did you use?

For windows there's really only an .msi which installs everything, and a .zip which needs to be unzipped and have the executable file run from inside the uncompressed directory.

The files it's complaining about missing should next to the .exe inside the unpacked directory. If you move the .exe elsewhere, or just extract it by itself, it's not going to work.
