pip install dlib-XX.XX.X-cpXX-cpXX-win_amd64.whl

The XX depends on your situation.

Open file C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\PythonXX\Lib\site-packages\dlib\_init_.py.

The XXX depends on your situation and the whole filepath may be different based on your installation configuration.

If you use CUDA, configure the code:

if "ON" == "ON":
    add_lib_to_dll_path(
        "C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/vXX.X/lib/x64/cudnn.lib"
    )
    add_lib_to_dll_path(
        "C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/vXX.X/lib/x64/cudart.lib"
    )

The XX.X depends on your situation or the whole filepath may be different based on your installation configuration.

If you do not use CUDA, delete the code:

if "ON" == "ON":
    add_lib_to_dll_path(
        "C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/vXX.X/lib/x64/cudnn.lib"
    )
    add_lib_to_dll_path(
        "C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/vXX.X/lib/x64/cudart.lib"
    )

Probably. I have not tried it.

import dlib

print(dlib.DLIB_USE_CUDA)
print(dlib.cuda.get_num_devices())

Whether the .whl file works on your computer is a matter of luck.

If the .whl file smooths your installation, you could send an e-mail of gratitude to me. This is enough to delight me for not less than a day and makes you incredibly sexually attractive.

If it does not work, I highly recommend you download the source code and install by yourself. Besides, you could also send an e-mail to me to complain.
