Hello there, Is it possible to use cli in windows with addition software or etc.?

Hi, You can possibly compile it with Cygwin. There are no super-special dependencies. Just libusb-1.0 which works on windows AFAIK. The scons file would need some changes, but that is left as an exercise for the reader ;-).

Hello, I made it working, I used cygwin and mingw. Both of them works. But I suggest using mingw. When I create exe file by using cygwin, and use exe in another computer, I had to install cygwin too. But mingw doesn't require such thing, all you need to do is copy libusb-1.0.dll too.

@trbLeeciN That is fantastic. Could you share your complete build process and the steps you went through to get it to work? I can add them to the readme so other users on windows can benefit.

Things you need; Zadig https://zadig.akeo.ie/ Zadig used to change driver of Hantek, since Hantek365 driver can not be used, so we need to change Hantek driver as libusb driver. Mingw http://www.mingw.org/ Mingw is C complier. Make sure you install gcc too, I followed following guide to install Mingw. http://www.mingw.org/wiki/howto_install_the_mingw_gcc_compiler_suite After these I added path of mingw path as system variable path. I am not sure if it is necessary or not, but I did it and it works. Guide to add path is below, many examples can be found for this. https://www.rose-hulman.edu/class/csse/resources/MinGW/installation.htm Libusb Driver Libusb is available in windows as libusb-1.0.dll. You need to download it. And place in the same folder with your .c file. https://libusb.info/ Modified .C file To compily .c file you need some modifications. I used transfer_main.c file as main and modified it. You can find attached .c file in attachments. (Thanks to CanKoçak) I will add libusb driver for you in attachments. Also I will add my exe file, so if you need you can use it. I changed output format since I will use it in another application. So if all installed correctly, you will go to command prompt. in cmd: Go to source folder (where .c and .dll file is) type: gcc -o executable_filepath.exe source_filepath.c -lusb-1.0
If you done everything right you will get .exe file in the same folder. After that you need to change hantek driver by using Zadig and you are ready to go.

Thank you for your contribution, I have added your instruction to the readme.md file on the main project page (with credit). Sorry it took me so long.
