Perl - Unable to install Net::SSH2 on windows

I'm attempting to install Net::SSH2 using cpan on Windows. I'm unable to install and getting the following error:

Warning: No success on command[C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site] SALVA/Net-SSH2-0.69.tar.gz C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site -- NOT OK

Does anyone know why I'm receiving this error. Any help is greatly appreciated. The entire output is posted via screenshots below:

Compiling Net::SSH2 for Activestate Perl is not an easy task.

Fortunately, Sisyphus has set up a repository of precompiled Perl packages (PPMs) which includes Net::SSH2: http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppmindex.html

The output says to try downloading libssh2 from https://www.libssh2.org/ If you have libssh2 already, you could place it in a path where Perl can find it. If you look at the bottom of the output it gives a list of directories that it searches for libssh2. One of those directories would be a likely place to put libssh2.
