<h3 id="faq">FAQs</h3>
<h4>0. (Windows version) It complains about a missing dll!</h4>
<p>
Please download and install <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145">
Visual Studio 2015 Runtime Library</a>.
</p>
<p>
(Older) Nighly builds are compiled with MSVC2017 (using Qt MSVC2015 x86, though). So you need two runtime libraries
to run it. Damn.
</p>
<p>
Anyway, you are in the DLL Hell(TM), specific to Microsoft Windows(R).
</p>
