line_profiler is implemented in C via Cython in order to reduce the overhead of profiling.

vcvarsall.bat is part of the Microsoft Visual Studio toolset and is used to compile the C extensions.

If you don't want to compile the C extensions yourself, you can download the compiled Windows binary(.exe) from pypi, and install it.
