Invalid metadata

I'm getting the following error when I run "Squish for Qt 9.0.0"

squishrunner.exe : Found invalid metadata in lib ../dlls/qt/imageformats/qgif.dll: Invalid metadata version

Using qtplugininfo I get the following metadata for the file:

qtplugininfo .\imageformats\qgif.dll
IID "org.qt-project.Qt.QImageIOHandlerFactoryInterface" Qt 6.8.0 (release)
User Data: {
    "Keys": [
        "gif"
    ],
    "MimeTypes": [
        "image/gif"
    ]
}

Finally, the Squish installation buildinfo.txt file:

Please clarify what you mean by this.
For example, Do you get the error when launching the Squish IDE? or During the execution of the already existing test suite?

It might be worth checking the "System Level" and/or "User Level" PATH environment variable to confirm no Qt related path is included.
