Problem installing on Windos about orange3-network

Please let us know if you figure it out! 🙏

Seems to be a Microsoft vs version issue (can't get visual studio 2010 express anymore):

Ended up just installing Orange3 through anaconda.

[kernc]

So did you have VS 2010 or did you have another version? Did you try any of the other fixes (i.e. configuring the environment variables)? Does the Anaconda version install this add-on?

I have Visual C++ 2010 version 10.0.40219 installed and I tried editing the environmental variable after I installed VS 2015 community edition, both of which didn't work. I attributed it to Orange3 getting installed with python 3.4 which is only supported with VS2010 whereas python 3.5 is reported to work with VS2015. I already had anaconda python 2.7 installed so I installed python 3.5 in a new environment (http://conda.pydata.org/docs/py2or3.html) and installed Orange3 from the anaconda pre-built packages (conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/ales-erjavec orange3). Then installing the addons with pip worked as I have reported before, but this time because it was installed in the same environment the addons showed up in orange3. The only downside is no desktop shortcut, but I can live with that.

Another possible solution, for posterity, is download the tarball and run:

python setup.py build --compiler=msvc

before installing.
