title: Unable to install python-Levenshtein on Windows, error code 1
body: <p>When trying to install python-Levenshtein for a project I'm doing, I'm encountering this error, all the info I've tried to find about it seems to be for other problems that I'm not encountering involving visual studio and other resources that I do not have installed or use for the project. </p>
  
  <p>Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.</p>
