 VSCP & Friends has been tested and works very well on Beaglebone Black. The setup is the same as on other Unix systems so the instructions to [setup VSCP & Friends on a Unix system](./setting_up_the_system_on_linux.md) can be used.
 
 
+## Setting up the system on Windows
+
+The VSCP daemon is not (yet) available on Windows. You can however use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) to run it if you like. With the system installed follow the Linux install instructions. The main problem is that the daemon is not yet available as a service on Windows. This is something that will be added in the future. However the VSCP daemon compiles and runs just fine on windows.
+
+### Compile and run on Windows
+
+Firts make a folder **build** and enter it
+
+```bash
+mkdir build
+cd build
+```
+
+If vcpkg is installed on the G: drive and the vcpkg triplet is x64-windows the following cmake commands can be used to compile the VSCP daemon on Windows.
+
+```bash
+cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -DVCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET=x64-windows  -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=G:\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake
+```
+
+Build with
+
+```bash
+cmake --build . --config Release
+```
