Unable to install Cairo in VS-Code on Windows

[BinaryBandit81]

I'm using Visual Studio Code on Windows and installed cmake, make and gcc
In the instructions to install Cairo (.\vcpkg.exe install cairo) I encountered an error:
error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
Could not locate a complete Visual Studio instance

I could not use the triplet for mingw, since cairo requires vcpkg-cmake in x64-windows only (?)

The only way I could find, was to install Visual Studio Community 2022 (maybe the MS Build tools would be sufficient).
After that, the installation was successful.

Did I miss anything or did do anything wrong?
