I had the same problem.

You need to install the latest version of node, npm and python. The warnings will continue to appear but the installation of truffle will be successful.

It worked for me with the folowing versions:

node - v16.13.2
python - v3.9.10
npm - 8.4.1

Hope you have figured this out since it was over 2 weeks ago.

I had the same issue. However I had a feeling the whole time is was python related. I have never coded before watching hashlips and codestackr about a month ago.

So zero python experience and the logs you put looked very similar to mine.

How I fixed was I followed the guidelines in the extension section, under the python app, in the first section named details it gives very clear instructions on how to set up python correctly.

Start there if you are having this issue.

Try to clear the cache:

npm cache clean -f

and install again.

I had the same issue. To be clear, you don't need to downgrade the node or npm version. The error you are facing is because you your system is not able to get the latest visual desktop C++ development. For achieving this you need to install visual studio code from here https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/ Get the community one since it is free of use. And then install the latest version of desktop development with C++

Cheers! This should work.
