Good news. I got this running in windows this morning.
I had to use the chirpwx.py script to bring it up.
I installed python3.9 for windows and used pip to bring in all the dependencies.
pip install pypiwin32 pip install wxpython pip install six pip install future pip install pyserial
Still working on getting a download from my radio though. Issue might be related to the fact I'm running windows 10 in a VM. Continuing to test, but it looks like we have a path forward in windows.
I run CHIRP in Windows VMs (Win 7 mostly but Win 10 occasionally). Since most of my programming cables have a Prolific chip (unauthorized copy) in them, I had to perform the requisite "download, install and select" of the old Prolific v3.2.0.0 device driver in each VM (the same as I must do in a physical machine running windows).
