Since windows has no concept of process-forking, MRI doesn't implement the fork() method on the Windows platform.
I know that for some use cases spawn() can be used instead. I didn't have the time yet to take a closer look at the code nor do I have enough depth in my knowledge around the topic to provide useful information or proposals.
However I was wondering if windows support is something that could be achieved without a huge effort?
