How to install PyTorch3D on Windows 11，This has troubled me for a few days

在windows上安装很麻烦，别的能解决，DPVO只有carlosedubarreto说了方法，太难了，我解决不了。现在我用WSL在linux环境重新安装了。
至于PyTorch3D，需要单独安装和编译，步骤比较繁琐，我是按这个教程 https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/609391678 安装的，在这之前安装requirements.txt的时候可以禁用PyTorch和pytorch3D。

Thank you for your answer,I don't have a Linux computer; my computer doesn't have space.I'll try to install Linux when I have time.

This helped me out a lot:

Instead of building Pytorch 3D in it's own environment as it's described in this blog, just build it in the GVHMR environment.
If installing still throws some error because CUDA can't find some Visual Studio files (which was the case for me), you can add their paths in the nvcc arguments in setup.py with the "I"-flag for building Pytorch 3D

Spending time on enviromental setting on WIN is time consuming.
I guess it's easier to install another Linux OS on disk.
