VS2019 not saving qtversion

Question

VS2019 Qt 5.12.11

In VS2019 tools/options/qt/versions, I add the path to qt. Close the window, reopen it, the path is gone.

I had older versions of Qt on the system. They are now gone.

Any suggestions?

I had the same error but was able to fix it via this link Qt VS Tools: error reading VS project settings.

Basically, you need to make sure you have the MSVC version of Qt instead of MinGW, because Visual Studio is only compatible with the MSVC version.
