So after attempting to install mysql-python with pip, it said that "error: Microsoft Visual C++ 10.0 is required. Get it with "Microsoft Windows SDK 7.1"

So from googling: I found that a few solutions that I've tried. I've uninstalled my Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable which was already installed.
I then tried to install Microsoft Windows SDK 7.1 however when I open the installer it says that .NET Framework 4 is already installed. So I uninstalled it to find that its pre-included in Windows 10. So it won't let me install Microsoft C++ 2010 Compilers or whatever and I think that might be the issue I'm having? and the compilers require net framework 4.
So I found another solution saying I could change the version numbers of Framework 4 in my regedit and it would allow me to proceed with the installation of SDK 7.1. This however did not work.
So to sum up my troubleshooting process:
I tried getting SDK 7.1, it says I needed net framework 4 even though it's already included with Windows (I think this is what people were saying). So then I tried to uninstall framework from add or remove program and reinstall it. But when I go to reinstall framework 4, it says it's already installed. And when I go to SDK 7.1 it says it is uninstalled. All I want to do is install mysql-python with pip lol...
