    I have a C++ project that was created in qt creator. (but doesn't use any of its features) Is there a way to painlessly migrate it to visual studio? There is Qt tools for visual studio but it requires downloading a bunch of different stuff to make it work and assumes you are making a qt project. I've tried manually adding the files to visual studio but for some bizarre reason there is no easily visible option to add existing folders forcing me to manually create folders one by one and add the files into it. https://shareit.onl/

      Do you have make / cmake files there ? These ones could help you.

        1. Create an empty project in Visual Studio. 2. Copy the files into the project directory. 3. In Visual Studio go to the Solutions window where you can add the files to their proper (virtual) folder (Header, Resource or Source). 4. You may then need to adjust the Project settings to build the project correctly.

          The make/cmake is probably full of qt references.
