@davisking Any updates?

I can't say from just what you posted. I would expect there to be more. Try using pip with --verbose. There should be more to the error message than that. I will note that lots of people use dlib on windows and when errors are reported in building it's always just that visual studio or cmake is installed wrong or missing. So that's probably the issue here too.
