Ahhh. I couldn't find the canoe.

That seems to be the problem. I am in a Developer Command Prompt for
VS 2019, but:
C:\Development\wsbuild64>cl.exe
'cl.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Now to figure out how to get those things into my path.
I'm 99% sure you DON'T have a Developer Command Prompt for VS 2019 as that does set the path accordingly. When you open the correct prompt (which for x64 is named in the Start Menu on my machine as "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2019") you should see the following output:
**********************************************************************
