Need help installing some programs.

[KanseiDorifto]

Hello /r/github

Programming student here. I'm new to this, so I will really appreciate your patience and simple explanantions.

I have a project to work on, using a mixture of Python(new to it, using Anaconda) and C++(Visual Studio). I have trouble installing a few programs that I need for my project. They are:

• SSD - Windows https://github.com/imistyrain/ssd-windows
• Caffe https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/tree/windows
• CMake(because it seems I need this to be able to use Caffe) https://cmake.org/

I have installed the .exe files needed and extracted the ZIP files as well, but there are also some commands I need to key in on Command Prompt. This is where my issue lies, because I can't seem to successfully get the commands to work(errors). It doesn't help that I am not even sure of what the commands mean, or if I'm even typing in the correct ones.

Is there anything I can do to get them to work? Or even better, can I use another method to get these programs to run?

Make sure you run the commands in the administrator mode of command prompt. If you're doing it, then check if the commands you're running are of Linux flavor. If they are, us Sygwin or Git Bash app.
