I have a Microsoft Visual Studio environment with MSVC compiler  
I installed make via MSYS and added it to PATH  
make -v displays my make version as 3.81  
I installed the **ISRG Root X1** certificate.  
Python version 3.10.4  
I checked app execution aliases however there was nothing python related to disable.

It seems to be something wrong with python but i’m not sure why, I have tried reinstalling python. Any help is appreciated.

This is the same as [Fix installation under path with whitespaces · Issue #753 · versatica/mediasoup · GitHub](https://github.com/versatica/mediasoup/issues/753)  
Install it in a directory without whitespaces in its path to avoid the issue. And consider contributing a fix 🙂

What MSVS version did you install use?

This doesn’t look good:

> fatal error C1083: Cannot open compiler generated file: ‘’: Invalid argument

I believe this is it: C compiler for the host machine: cl (msvc 19.29.30143 “Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.29.30143 for x64”)

Also I wonder if this line indicates the problem?  
106 error WARNING: msvc does not support C++11; attempting best effort; setting the standard to C++14

On my computer, VS2019 and VS2022 only has c++ 14. No C++ 11 options.  
In Official document, it didn’t mention which VS c++ component need to be installed.

C++11 is not a component, it’s a C++ standard update and a set of language features that were introduced in it. MSVC in VS2019 and VS2022 supports most of C++11 features, but has no option to control whether those features should be used or not. Don’t worry about that.
