title: VSCode v1.35 - RuntimeError: CMake must be installed to build the following extensions: dlib
body: <p>I have already installed CMake by <code>pip install cmake</code> in my VS Code 1.35 and trying to install <code>face_recognition</code> but it still give me a RuntimeError. I'm using 'Python 3.7.3, x32'</p>
  
  <p>I also tried to install the <code>dlib</code> by <code>pip install dlib</code> since it is one of the reason why I can't install <code>face_recognition</code>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\Users\user&gt;python -m pip install cmake
  Requirement already satisfied: cmake in c:\users\user\appdata\roaming\python\python37\site-packages (3.14.4)
  
  C:\Users\user&gt;python -m pip install dlib

  <p>I'm hoping that somebody can help me with this. I'm new and really a beginner in using python and tried different suggestions from other questions. Hope that somebody will notice my question. Thank you!</p>
