When I built slicer，I met the error like this：  
|错误|MSB8066|“D:\D\S4D\CMakeFiles\4bd50016b564dae0308373b1837531aa\python-setuptools-configure.rule;D:\D\S4D\CMakeFiles\4bd50016b564dae0308373b1837531aa\python-setuptools-build.rule;D:\D\S4D\CMakeFiles\4bd50016b564dae0308373b1837531aa\python-setuptools-install.rule;D:\D\S4D\CMakeFiles\9caf3a0086c410646133668f162796b6\python-setuptools-complete.rule;D:\D\S4D\CMakeFiles\d3dcc5b750354682347ad1f5e657fb8e\python-setuptools.rule”的自定义生成已退出，代码为 1。|python-setuptools|C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v160\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets|241||  
I don’t know how to solve the problem. Could you give me some help?Thanks very much!

I am not sure whether this references general python or slicer python, but did you tried installing or updating via pip python-setuptools
