Does this work under Windows Home? #19

Will this work on Windows Home systems? Does it need VSS or Hyper-V? Is it a 32-bit or 64-bit app? What are dependencies/requirements?

ShadowSpawn works on all versions of Windows from XP to Windows 10, and this includes each respective "Home Edition". There are two 32-bit binaries (one for Windows XP the other for later x86 Windows) and there is one unifying 64-bit binary. It's only listed dependency is vcredist, which is included in the release page in both x86 and x64 form. As for VSS or Hyper-V, I don't think you need it.
