We don't use qmake. Just follow https://musescore.org/en/developers-handbook/compilation/compile-instructions-windows-mingw-git to the letter and you'll be able to build and run MuseScore

Hi all, I am a third year engineering undergraduate of University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka, specialising in the field of Computer Science and Engineering. I am a programming enthusiast and I find the project "Text utilities" highly interesting. I have worked on a project that involved Qt and c++ during my internship at Millennium Information Technologies, Sri Lanka. In that project I created an API to enable easy creation of dynamic front end to a schema of a pattern given in the form of Json objects. While the API was created in c++, the dynamic front end was created in Qt. I used Visual Studio 2010 and Qt creator for this purpose. Since I have some experience in the language requirements mentioned, and my interest in contributing to a music related project I found the mentioned project really interesting. Moreover I do have some experience in music as I have taken Eastern Music course in my school time and Violin was my instrument. As a first step I started on setting up the project in Qt creator but once I run QMake, I get the following error messages. -- The C compiler identification is unknown -- The CXX compiler identification is unknown -- Check for working C compiler: C:/Qt/Tools/mingw491_32/bin/gcc.exe -- Check for working C compiler: C:/Qt/Tools/mingw491_32/bin/gcc.exe -- broken CMake Error at C:/Program Files (x86)/CMake/share/cmake-3.4/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:61 (message): The C compiler "C:/Qt/Tools/mingw491_32/bin/gcc.exe" is not able to compile a simple test program. It fails with the following output: Change Dir: F:/GSoC/MuseScore/Source code/build-MuseScore-master-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MSVC2010_32bit-Default/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp Run Build Command:"nmake" "/NOLOGO" "cmTC_cd77b\fast" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\BIN\nmake.exe" -f CMakeFiles\cmTC_cd77b.dir\build.make /nologo -L CMakeFiles\cmTC_cd77b.dir\build Building C object CMakeFiles/cmTC_cd77b.dir/testCCompiler.c.obj C:\Qt\Tools\mingw491_32\bin\gcc.exe -o CMakeFiles\cmTC_cd77b.dir\testCCompiler.c.obj -c "F:\GSoC\MuseScore\Source code\build-MuseScore-master-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MSVC2010_32bit-Default\CMakeFiles\CMakeTmp\testCCompiler.c" NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\Qt\Tools\mingw491_32\bin\gcc.exe' : return code '0x1' Stop.

See also "F:/GSoC/MuseScore/Source code/build-MuseScore-master-Desktop_Qt_5_5_1_MSVC2010_32bit-Default/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log". Moreover, when I try compiling using command prompt, I get the error “cmake is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file”, eventhough I have added “C:\Program Files (x86)\CMake\bin” to my path. Please be kind enough to take a look and tell me as to where I have gone wrong.
