Description

@abstruse123

I am trying to install paramiko package using pip and not able to proceed due to this error.

OS: Win 10 x64

Python version: 3.4.0 x86

I also installed MS Visual C++ 2008 Express edition and found that the environment variable is set correctly.

But, still it says that the vcvarsall.bat can't be found. The command line is attached below. Pl. suggest a solution for this.
