Cannot open SDL2_image.lib

Hello, i have an issue with SDL2, not that i cant render anything, i already have that down. The primary issue is that i cant get images to work, cargo has an issue where
note: LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'SDL2_image.lib'

I have installed sdl2 correctly based off multiple sources, i have installed cmake to use the bundler, hoping that it would help in someway. I also made sure the paths in my environmental variables were correct, they were, im confident, also to cmake aswell. The features setup is correct in my cargo.toml. Im pretty sure i checked basically all boxes that exist that could be wrong but i havent seen anyone else have this issue.

This essentially means that i cant use anything image related, the methods, whatever that is required

As far as im aware, i dont see any image library in the sdl2 download (VC.zip is what i used, i have the c-compiler MSVC and mingw

SDL2_image is a separate library from SDL.
