You shouldn't be running it from the build directory.  It doesn't have all the 
needed dlls.
Run it from install/bin instead.

 I had been successfully  building and running WSJT-X development releases for 
many months up to r8072. When RC2 came out I started using it to check it for 
bugs and hadn't built any new 1.7.1 releases until today. I built r8098 and it 
auto started and ran OK. I went into the 8098/release/build folder and made a 
shortcut for wsjtx.exe but when I ran it I received an error message. Running 
the wsjtx.exe directly gives the same error. The message says that the app 
failed to start because it could not find or load the QT platform plugin 
"windows". I tried rebuilding with the same results.

I also tried running wsjtx-exe from a number of older (8060 & 8071) builds 
which previously were working but get the same error.

Can you shed some light as to what might be happening?  Thanks.
