Cannot install on Windows 11 from setup.py

[Oddy123123]

• face_recognition version: 1.4.0
• Python version: 3.8.8
• Operating System: Windows 11

Description

I'm trying to install face_recognition using setup.py file, but I'm getting an error during installation.

What I Did

• I have Visual Studio 2019 with C++ installed.
• I installed cmake using pip install cmake and it was successfully installed (version 3.22.1)
• Finally I downloaded this project as a zip file, extracted it, went to its directory, and ran this command: python setup.py install
• I'm getting the following error many times:

C:\Users\abdul\anaconda3\Library\include\gif_lib.h(286,61): error C2734: 'GifAsciiTable8x8': 'const' object must be ini
tialized if not 'extern' (compiling source file C:\Users\abdul\AppData\Local\Temp\easy_install-0keuxls6\dlib-19.22.1\to

İf the dlip library is not installed, install VMware Workstation (or other Virtualization) and install Ubuntu than try again install "Face Recognition".

Follow this order to load it.

• pip install cmake
• pip install dlib
• pip install opencv-python
• pip install face_recognition
