I am a Total Noob at this and I know nearly nothing about this. I just started using Qt Creator for windows 5.6.0 and While I wrote my first "Hello World" code..

I was asked to add a kit. I searched the net for similar issues and it said that I needed a compiler for Qt. Thus, I installed MinGW from QtForums

now when go to Tools->Options->Build&Run->compiler, I can not understand how do I add it to the list.

Please help me through it?

Added MinGW packages to QT installation with the QT Maintenance Tool (C:\Qt\MaintenanceTool.exe) It allows to add/remove components via the qt repositories. So no need for re-installation.
