Error installation of diff-gaussian-rasterization and found solution

As many others pointed out when running the command `conda env create --file environment.yml` I ran into several errors related to the diff-gaussian-rasterization such as module not found or errors in building the wheel when trying alternatives.

Since it may help others in the same situation I am posting the solution that I found as follows: PREPARATION (Windows11 with rtx3090) installed git (as readme) installed conda (as readme) installed visual studio 2019 community (selecting the "Desktop Development with C++") _**installed Cuda toolkit v.11.7** from [the Nvidia website](nvidahttps://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-11-7-0-download-archive?target_os=Windows&target_arch=x86_64&target_version=11&target_type=exe_local)_ installed COLMAP (as readme) installed ImageMagik (as readme) installed FFMPEG (as readme) I git cloned the gaussian-splatting repository to a location o
