I'm trying to install channels on a Windows 10 box. I keep getting the following error:
$ pip install --user channels
... Stuff here
building 'twisted.test.raiser' extension
error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required. Get it with "Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools": https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/

Tons of searching SO and other places on the Internet have left me no closer to the answer. Here's what I've tried:
Installed VS build tools. Nearly everything I found on this topic is outdated and about VS 2015, so I'm flying a bit blind here. The error message isn't nice enough to say which of the myriad tools I need, so here's what I've installed:
- Visual Studio build tools 2019
- C++ build tools
- MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.20)
- Windows 10 SDK
- C++ CMake tools for Windows
- Testing tools core features - Build Tools
- Visual Studio build tools 2017
- Visual C++ build tools core features
- VC++ 2017 15.9 v14.16 latest v141 tools
- Other stuff the same as above
- Visual Studio build tools 2019
In other reading, I've read that sometimes it's necessary to upgrade
setuptools, so I've done that.- I've rebooted for good measure.
None of the above has had any effect whatsoever, despite what answers to other questions have said.
What's wrong? I'm primarily a Linux user, so Windows issues tend to stump me.
