Yes, Im a noob, but I could really use some help, Ive been trying to
fix this for over a week. Ive reinstalled CMake, VS2017, and MSBuild,
added to the environment path variable the path to the compiler, but
nothing Ive done has worked. Ive ran VS2017 as admin, Ive ran Cmake as
admin. Can somebody please help this noob out?
