I'm assuming "for windows" means you're trying to install it on Windows?

According to https://salmon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/building.html, salmon is "currently unsupported on Windows".

Look into using WSL to run these types of software on Windows.

You should first install WSL and then you can follow the instructions here. This page also links to instructions for installing WSL.
