+ \section1 Deploying Qt WebEngine Applications on Windows
+
+ If your application depends on Qt WebEngine, you must deploy
+ \c{<Qt install path>/bin/QtWebEngineProcess.exe} to the application install
+ path. If you chose to deploy the binary to a different path, set the
+ \c QTWEBENGINEPROCESS_PATH environment variable to the binary's absolute
+ path (including its file name). This enables the application to find the
+ binary and execute it for every instance of QWebEngineView or
+ WebEngineView created. For example, a browser application with two tabs
+ open should have two separate processes of \c QtWebEngineProcess.exe
+ running. This is a common approach used by most modern web engines to
+ provide a stable browsing experience.
+
+ \note To support HTML5 videos, you must additionally deploy
+ \c ffmpegsumo.dll (WebM codec plugin) into the \c qtwebengine directory
+ under the application install path or under the path that the
+ \c PluginsPath variable was set to in
+ \c{<Qt install path>/<Qt version>/msvc2013/qt.conf}.
+
+ For more information about deploying applications on Windows, see
+ \l{Qt for Windows - Deployment}.
