Hello Alexander. I also had the same issue as you. I was able to get above this by using windows subsystem for linux (WSL) with an Ubuntu installation from the store (but really any linux distro would do). WSGI seems to run perfectly on linux and installation was smooth. The best part is you can hook up VS Code to your WSL instance and (at least for me) your dev environment feels exactly as it did before.

Here's Microsoft's installation guide docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/w.... The page also has links that explain how the system works in greater detail. Hope this helps!
