Molebox can't work on Windows 10 17045 and newer builds

I use molebox to pack a Executable file with some resources files. On windows 10 1709(16299), it works. But if someone want to use the packed Executable file on Windows 10 17045 or newer builds. the Executable file can not access the packed resources files.
the Enigma virtual box has the same issue. and they have fixed it.

build fail

can you provide a built package? my build is fail.....

Doesn't work for Qt-based projects?

I've tried to use pre-built Molebox VS (Version 4.6000, referenced at other site) for the application created with Qt.
Everything gets packed fine (without errors). But unfortunately the application can't start and shows the error:

This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "windows"
in "".

The MXB-script is straightforward:

;MOLEBOX CONFIG SCRIPT 1.0
<options>
target=FolderViewer.exe
source=build-Desktop_32bit-Release\release\FolderViewer.exe
isexecutable=yes
dologging=yes
usevreg=yes

saveiat=yes
regmask=*.reg

<files>

build-Desktop_32bit-Release\release\vcruntime140.dll;vcruntime140.dll
build-Desktop_32bit-Release\release\platforms\qwindows.dll;platforms/qwindows.dll
<end>

Using absolute paths has no positive effect.
The generated log file doesn't reveal any issues, and qwindows.dll isn't mentioned there at all.
I run "boxed" app on Windows 7.
Has anyone succeeded with using Molebox for Qt-based applications?
