I'm trying to do a shared compilation for my project and have included all necessary .dlls. I get this error telling me that the "windows" plugin could not be located, when I have already included that also, in the platforms folder. If anyone could help, that'd be great because I'm going crazy.

    You need to add some others dlls, not only plugins\qwindows.dll. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18368826/deploying-qt-c-application-from-visual-studio-qwindows-dll-error . The easiest way is to use the standard Qt's util **windeployqt** – Vladimir Bershov Jan 24 '16 at 06:00
