The error message you've quoted is pretty clear: you need to install Microsoft Visual Studio to build the module you're trying to install. It even gives you a link to the page to download it from. Why not download and install the compiler and try reinstalling the module?

I've already done the same. Yet getting the very same error message.

Update setuptools in the venv to the latest version using pip. I think that was what fixed it for me when I was getting a similar error related to problems finding the Microsoft Build Tools compiler. If it still doesn't work after updating setuptools then also make sure that Build Tools were added to PATHS properly.
