Hi Sascha, you're right. It wasn't intended not to ship the Qt plugins within the package. I'll check that and update the tarball. BTW, do you know something similar for Linux like windeployqt.exe?

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. which is typically attributed to the Qt plugins not being found. Looking at the bin folder, I saw that the Qt libraries are shipped in the binary package, but not the required Qt plugins. Is there a particular reason for that? In my view, you should either ship a complete self-contained set of Qt libraries, or none at all. After I deleted all bin/libQt5* files, my system Qt libraries were used by the MITK Workbench and hence also the system Qt plugins were found and loaded (sure, some QT_PLUGIN_PATH env var trickery would also work, but just hides the real issue). The workbench started just fine. Let me know if I can help with this for the next release.
