Download the dlib files Link - https://drive.google.com/file/d/11Hip8-llWEm5GN3_u4ibI09unL7xCw0g/view?usp=drivesdk And just copy the path of that file and paste it into the terminal. Stable version is 10 among all files that you have been downloaded from the link

In terminal you just need copy the path of that particular file; there are 4 files the choose one which is suitable for your computer work on windows.
