### Step 3. Create VCPKG environment variable
In the next step you will be using CMake to build hifi, but first it is recommended that you create an environment variable linked to a directory somewhere on your machine you have control over. The directory will hold all temporary files and, in the event of a failed build, will ensure that any dependencies that generated prior to the failure will not need to be generated again.
In the next step, you will use CMake to build High Fidelity. By default, the CMake process builds dependency files in Windows' `%TEMP%` directory, which is periodically cleared by the operating system. To prevent you from having to re-build the dependencies in the event that Windows clears that directory, we recommend that you create a `HIFI_VCPKG_BASE` environment variable linked to a directory somewhere on your machine. That directory will contain all dependency files until you manually remove them.
To create this variable:
