The official blogpost about the dropped windows support is available here:

Seems Windows support won’t be back in the next future as all checks to test for Windows are now removed and running oC on Windows is completely blocked:

## Description
There is a setup check that prevents installing on Windows.
No n… eed to keep the old unsupported Windows code paths.
## Related Issue
None
## Motivation and Context
Additional useless code paths and legacy code.
Additional warnings every time the unit tests are run and I'm too lazy to adjust my console's scrollback buffer.
## How Has This Been Tested?
Ran unit tests.
Checked that files_external still works after the change in there.
