How have you installed GNU Octave? And btw, image-acquisition will only work on systems with v4l2 (typically GNU/Linux systems), see octave.sourceforge.io/image-acquisition/index.html - Andy

The reason why your installation fails is, that the image-acquisition package for octave is not implemented for windows systems.
