According to below issue and current-status on github, windows os doesn't seem to be supported by tink yet officially.

Doesn't tink support windows os yet for below languages ? is it true?

java . in fact, java version seems to work on the windows os according to my test. . wasn't tink java supported either?
c++

Windows support is currently not a high priority for the team; we recently added some support for C++ in v2.0.0 (https://github.com/tink-crypto/tink-cc/releases/tag/v2.0.0). Other implementations may work on Windows, but we don't have CI coverage testing this at the moment.

@morambro

thx for the answer. :)

Windows support is currently not a high priority for the team;

Is there any milestone for supporting windows os? although priority of it will not be high, I would like to roughly know the time line for windows support. :)

Hi @davidkhala, since https://github.com/tink-crypto/tink-py/commit/5b03c501f9e09694ca803cb1d20f258851fadc7a, it should be possible to python3 -m pip install . from tink-py's root on MS Windows. It requires Windows Server >= 2019 on X86_64, Visual Studio 2019 >= 16.10 and protoc >=25.2 installed. This should be included in the next Tink Python release.

I am going to close this issue. In case you have other requests/feedback, please open a new issue in the appropriate repo(s) in https://github.com/tink-crypto.
