I've never tested it on Windows myself, but I integrated some changes
provided by other users quite some time ago.

BTW: A few weeks ago I was contacted on Github regarding Windows
support. The user had some issues, but then he found a solution.

https://github.com/hansiglaser/pas-libusb/issues/4

Due to my lack of understanding of Windows, I've not yet taken over his
changes, because I wanted to wait for confirmation from other users. So
if James had some feedback, I'd appreciate it greatly.

Thanks
