It almost appears that Cmake was installed before VS (or VS was already installed from your previous go at things?). But this is in response to your first post only. Now you appear to be doing things in a panic, no offense.

Well, I apologize if it appears I'm doing things in a panic. I'm not an expert on this kind of stuff so I'm doing my best to troubleshoot. I wanted to keep the thread up to date so as not to waste people's time if they suggest something I've tried.
Do you have a suggestion?

Well I'm glad you got it figured out. Because despite my best efforts to not offend (even including "no offense", however, by definition, you did press the proverbial "panic" button), you still retorted with an offensive stance with a patronizing reply. <shrug>
