## Supported Operating Systems
### Microsoft Windows

On Windows users should ensure that cmake 3.17.0 is installed.<br />
Up on compiling c-make will check **automatically**, whether `libusb` 1.0.20 or later is present.<br />
If this is not the case, the installation routine will download the latest version (1.0.23 at the time of writing).<br />
Thus no user interaction regarding libusb is necessary.

* Windows 10
* Windows 8.1
