Qt Cmake configuration has no path to a C++ compiler set.

Shubby

The warning I get is: "Qt CMake configuration has no path to a C++ compiler set, even though the kit has a valid tool chain."

I am not sure how to change the CMake configuration so that it has a path to the compiler. I do have a C++ compiler installed as it works with VS but Qt seems to run into some problem.

This is a screen shot of what appears as the warning: https://i.stack.imgur.com/ETET6.jpg

This is the error I get trying to run anything:
