Hi,
What version of Qt are you using?
I think this might be a Qt bug that you are encountering.
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg07290.html
There was a patch for KIO to workaround the problem, but it was rejected
because the proper fix
is in Qt 5.8.
For building Kate on windows I check the Qt version and apply the attached
patch if the Qt
version is less than 5.8
