Run failure: LIMA doesn't reckognise a fresh QT install

I am unable to run lima from my fresh Windows install after taking care of the dependencies which are if I recall correctly Python 3 with PATH enabled and QT.
I am getting the "This application failed to start because no QT platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the app may fix this problem"
I just reinstalled a fresh QT 5.11, and have reinstalled Lima over and over, cleaning registries entries and using the bundled uninstaller.
I'm pretty sure I messed up on the installing process, so here is what I have been through so far:
-Installed Python 3 and set it to PATH
-Installed QT5.11 and an older 5.11 afterwards to see if it was just a version error
-Fetched files from [https://ci.appveyor.com/project/kleag/lima/build/artifacts](url) and [https://github.com/aymara/lima/releases/tag/20181029184208-fb5b10d0](url) and it failed on both installs.
I understand the split between having an install with/without GUI, but I don't understand what the 4 install files are for.
I probably got lost between the wiki and user manual on the installation process.
