### Windows
-The following procedure will build and run Tahoe-LAFS on Windows. (This is basically source:docs/quickstart.rst and part of source:docs/running.rst with Windows-specific paths spelled out.)
-Note that this assumes that you install Python in the default location (C:\Python27 for Python 2.7.x), if you choose another location you'll need to adjust the instructions below:
+Follow source:docs/quickstart.rst andsource:docs/running.rst.
-1. Download and install Python 2.7.3 (the x86 or x86-64 MSI installer link) from .
-
-2. Download the latest Tahoe-LAFS release from [//source/tahoe-lafs/releases/ ]. Unpack it in a convenient place, such as C:\tahoe-lafs.
-
-3. Open a command prompt and cd to the top of the Tahoe-LAFS tree (e.g. `cd \tahoe-lafs`).
-
-4. Run "`C:\Python27\python setup.py build`". Wait a bit until it stops working. Note that you need a working network connection because it will download various dependencies. Ignore any warnings.
-
-5. Run "`C:\tahoe-lafs\bin\tahoe create-client C:\tahoelafsbase`". Choose an appropriate base directory.
-
-6. Run "`notepad C:\tahoelafsbase\tahoe.cfg`" to edit your config file. After "`introducer.furl = `", paste in the FURL of the introducer for the grid you want to connect to. See [TestGrid](TestGrid) to get the FURL of the introducer for the testgrid.
-
-7. Run "`C:\tahoe-lafs\bin\tahoe start C:\tahoelafsbase`". Your node will start running and connect to the grid. The Windows firewall may ask whether or not to allow Python to make network connections. Say yes.
-
-`C:\Python27\python setup.py install` can also optionally be used as on other platforms.

+#### What if that doesn't work?
The build or install steps could result in an error that says a compiler is needed. If this happens and you are using Python 2.7, it is a packaging bug that should be reported to the tahoe-dev list. If you are using a different version of Python or want to compile the C/C++ components yourself, install the MinGW C/C++ compiler as follows (this only works for 32-bit Windows):
-1. Download and install MinGW from https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/ (the main installer linked from the big green download button). The installer will prompt you for what components to install. You need the base components plus g++.

2. Early versions of 5.1.x of MinGW had a bug in the bundled Gnu assembler. If typing "`as --version`" at the command line gives "`GNU assembler (GNU Binutils) 2.20`", then you have an affected version. To fix this, download an upgrade to a newer version of MinGW which has `GNU assembler (GNU Binutils) 2.20.51.20100613` or later.
-3. Configure distutils to use MinGW. If you have another C/C++ compiler installed, such as the cygwin one, distutils may default to using it instead of the mingw one. To configure distutils to use mingw32, create a file called [//trac/tahoe-lafs/raw-attachment/wiki/AdvancedInstall/distutils.cfg distutils.cfg] in `C:\Python27\lib\distutils`, and put in that file (you may also need to use the script from [https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-January/041676.html this email] in order to "register" the mingw compiler):
