Please download the Windows version here without compiling

Thank you, may be I'll do. But I'd prefer to compile it myself )

If you decide to compile it yourself, you may end up spending a long time doing it and it will take up a lot of your device's resources.

In addition, for the current Windows version you may also need a file that is currently only generated normally on Linux to fix errors encountered during the compilation process.

At the same time, you need to strictly refer to the instructions in the //docs directory to compile, and you will also face other problems, such as the instructions for the windows platform in the //docs directory need to be updated, and the sh file used by Thorium to process the chromium source code does not run well on windows, etc.

To sum up, please consider your actions carefully, but I will not stop you from compiling in the end, because it is your freedom.
