failed to install QT 5.5.0

Question

i tried offline install. i downloded the binary package from this link for Windows 7 64 bit : http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/#section-2 .

When i run the .exe, it shows an error in a pop-up " qt.5.5.0 stopped working ".

What could be the problem ?

I want to use qt designer to create some tools. i'm using python to handle the logic part.

I researched for sometime here. They were mentioning about Visual Studio. Do i need to install visual studio first ?

i've installed python (3.xx) in my machine.

With the online installer, you can install QtCreator and code in C++/Python. You don't need Visual Studio (unless you want to), online installer will bring mingw compiler.
