Visual Studio Code – Python package: errors "Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required" & "failed with exit code 2"

I’m trying to install a package on python (pip install basedosdados -U) and I get the following message: error:

Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 or greater is required. Get it with "Microsoft Visual
C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.mirosoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/

After installing it and ticking this enter image description here (as suggested by another thread I read), I now get the following error message:

error: command ‘C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio2022BuildToolsVCToolsMSVC14.34.31933binHostX86x64cl.exe’ failed with exit code 2

Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Thanks a lot!

I tried many things, just installing it without ticking the box previously mentioned also does not work.

    Did you try to install the whl instead of the tar.gz?
    A whl is the "compiled" finished version of the package, so it should be able not to try to build it at all.

    You can use pip install basedosdados -U --prefer-binary or just manually installing from pypi

    ERROR: Failed building wheel for pandas Failed to build pandas ERROR: Could not build wheels for pandas, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

    I have encountered similar problems. The solution is to install 64-bit pandas instead of 32-bit.

    You can read the installation page and select the appropriate version to install.
