Hi, I tried to build our FOSS project (https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah) using Qt 6.8.1 both on MSVC 2019 and 2022 images and got error messages indication WebEngine module is not present.
May be is it not installed due to this change in Qt installer?
Thanks in advance, Ale.

    This last image update proved pretty challenging with many changes made to the QT SDK repository. We had to do quite a bit of blind digging to find the component. It will be added back on the next image update. I've created an issue to track it here.
    In the meantime you can download the module here and unzip it to the C:/Qt/6.8.1/msvc2022_64 folder at the install: stage of your build and see how that works.

    Hi Owen, your workaround seems to work, at least the failing qmake step is passing now allowing me to continue testing, thank you very much!
