Looks like you've missed the ";" path separator that should be at the front
of the string.  Start with a new PS prompt (as you've broken the path in
that one) and try again.

I'd really like to see what that 5.2.1 windeployqt gives out, but as the
others have said, windeployqt in < 5.3.x looks to be broken.
