How to add specific boost library to MINGW include path - c++

Question

I am trying to set up the boost libraries for C++ in Visual Studio Code: I have extracted the zip file to my program files but when I go to build it all with bootstrap.bat it comes up with this error. It works fine for the first 4 then stops. I have no additional permissions set up

All I want these for is for the Python Library, is there a way to move said library directly into the MINGW include file and ignore the rest that won't work?
