KafkaEx compilation error on Windows

Hello everyone! I’m new here.

I’m trying to use KafkaEx in an app running on Windows 10 , but when I run mix deps.compile, I get an error related to the c++ compiler.

mix deps.get

Resolving Hex dependencies...

** (Mix) Could not compile dependency :crc32cer, "escript.exe "c:/Users/Yesid/.mix/rebar3" bare compile --paths c:/omited_path/kafka_conn_app/_build/dev/lib/*/ebin" command failed. Errors may have been logged above. You can recompile this dependency with "mix deps.compile crc32cer", update it with "mix deps.update crc32cer" or clean it with "mix deps.clean crc32cer"

escript.exe is in the $PATH variable and rebar3 exists in the specified path.

I installed Visual Studio Community 2022 with the C++ compilers and ran the .bat file found here;
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat
That script sets all the environment variables necessary for the C++ compiler to run.
With this approach I was able to compile the KafkaEx dependency successfully, but I’m trying to find another way to compile it because it’s a bit of a hassle having to run that script every time I want to compile my application’s dependencies.

Elixir version: 1.13.0
Erlang/OTP 24

I really appreciate any help!
Thanks!
