From puppet's perspective, the augeas provider is only suitable if puppet
can load the ruby-augeas bindings, which in turn load the augeas native
libraries.

In the default Puppet MSI install, neither the ruby-augeas bindings nor
augeas native libraries are provided, so the provider is not suitable out
of the box. However, you may be able to compile augeas for windows and
install the ruby-augeas gem... I haven't done that myself, so I'm not sure
how well that'll work out.

[Puppet Users] Augeas resource type for Windows?
