Description
Every time I've tried to compile Tiled I get a LNK1104 error that "intermediate.tiled.exe.manifest" could not be opened. I've tried compiling both the 64-bit and 32-bit version, reinstalled qt-5, and tried visual studio 2013 to no avail. Is there anything else I could try?

Research direction

Identify the build entry point responsible for that manifest and verify that Tiled compiles successfully from a path containing spaces.
