The installed environment is huge

Could the dependencies be trimmed a bit? The size of the environment on win10 is around 2.3GB. I don't know enough about Freecad but git seems like it might not be needed in the run section (my installation directory for git has 0.5GB).

thanks for reporting: git removed from run-time-deps: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD_Conda/commit/b99cc23857a43f27bdafa610954acbe77d2aed12 also you can try using openblas instead of mkl, allthough last time I tried openblas on windows it wasn't really working. conda create -n freecad nomkl

How can I test the commit b99cc23? I am not very well versed with conda (yet?;).

Here is a short description: https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD_Conda/blob/master/build_windows.md

the difficult part for windows is the visual-studio setup. Someone has also tried vs2017 but I think 2015 is easier.

I have vs2017 installed. I might try vs2015 to be in line with everyone else.
