I followed the build instructions in the Readme

find ./ -name '*.ts' -exec lrelease {} \;
qmake ultracopier.pro
make -j$(nproc)

and it did create a file simply called "ultracopier", which is presume is the Linux executable. How do I find the Windows executables and/or installer file? Do these build instructions build Ultracopier for all platforms, or only Linux?

How do I build Ultracopier for Windows, if not by following these instructions?

The most simplest way ot compile for windows AND under windows without compilation knowledge is using qt 5 with qt creator, you open the .pro file with Qt creator.

If you wish compile from Linux, then you need cross build script, but you have to write for your env. Your can look around https://mxe.cc/ o via wine

Thank you, I would like to compile this on a remote server so I don't think Qt Creator will work. I am reading up on MXE right now.

The label "all-in-one version" in the Readme.md is certainly misleading, though.

...Also, one of the reasons I didn't try to compile it on Windows right away is that most of the dependencies you list in Readme look like they're Linux-only (for example libogg-dev). Do I need to find and install all those dependencies on Windows before I could build it in Qt Creator?

Most of the dependency is embed in windows, and most of dependency is for audio, you can just remove the audio to disable most of the dependency
