Can't find or load the QT platform plugin “windows”

I tried to make an installer for my plugin, which is created for AutoCAD 2016 using QT 5.3.
 
-- It work perfectly on the development computer, but when I tried to install it somewhere else it give me the following message:
             ~~This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows".
 
-- I have already installed the QT plateforms as follows:
 
    ./contents/
          myPlugin.arx
          icudt53.dll
          icuin53.dll
          icuuc53.dll
          libEGL.dll
          Qt5Core.dll
          Qt5Gui.dll
          Qt5Nework.dll
          Qt5Quick.dll
          Qt5Widgets.dll
          platforms/qwindows.dll
          
-- I also define the runtime paths in the file (PackageContents.xml) as below:
 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ApplicationPackage SchemaVersion="1.0" AutodeskProduct="AutoCAD" Name="StartupCommandTest" Description="Sample showing usage of StartupCommand parameter" AppVersion="1.0.0" ProductType="Application" AppNameSpace="appstore.exchange.autodesk.com" Author="xxxxxx">
  <CompanyDetails Name="XXXXXX" Url="www.xxxxx.com" Email="xxx@xxxx.com" />
  <Components>
 
    <RuntimeRequirements SupportPath="./Contents/; ./Contents/platforms/" OS="Win64" Platform="AutoCAD*" SeriesMin="R19.0" SeriesMax="R29.0" />
    <ComponentEntry AppName="MyPlugin.arx" ModuleName="./Contents/myPlugin.arx">
    </ComponentEntry>
 
  </Components>
    <Components Description="CUI">
    <RuntimeRequirements SupportPath="./Contents/Resources/" OS="Win64" Platform="AutoCAD*" SeriesMin="R19.1" SeriesMax="R29.1" />
    <ComponentEntry AppName="myPlugin.cuix" Version="1.1.0" ModuleName="./Contents/myPlugin.cuix"/>
  </Components>
</ApplicationPackage>
 

--  can anyone help? Thank you in advance.

Can you install Process Monitor to determine what is missing? That should help you identify where the system is looking for those DLLs

Just had the same issue with 3ds Max 2018, probably associated with the Civil 3d plugin but I'm not sure. Currently following the only info I can find on this and re-installing 3ds MAx.

I installed the QT library on my Windows 10 pc and rebooted, and was then able to download parts from autodesk-fusion.partcommunity.com/3d-cad-models/ into Fusion 360.
