Make sure to get a "green PCB" version of it and also check that it outputs 3.3V instead of 5V before using it: there was a small number of (mostly black PCB) CH341A which gave 5V instead of 3.3V - although it's possible to fix them.

It shouldn't be hard to compile, though, but the programmer support is limited on Windows. Mostly by the libraries you can find. I guess, you can get support for many serial UART and USB connected programmers with MinGW[1] and libusb[2]. If you succeed, it would be nice if you'd drop some lines how it's done, as we have no Windows instructions in our README, currently. Alternatively, you could cross-compile flashrom for Windows on Linux. Instructions are in the README, I never tried it, though. Last but not least, if libusb (or what you need for your programmer) works in the "Windows Subsystem for Linux", you could also try flashrom in there.

Hi Sven, I think it would be much more efficient for you to just use some user friendly Linux LiveCD/LiveUSB (it unpacks to your RAM without touching a hard drive), then you temporary install a linux version of flashrom and use it for flashing + could mount a Windows partition to copy the binaries. flashrom wiki contains the step-by-step instructions on how to build it under Linux, or your could simply install a package from your Linux distro (something like "sudo apt-get install flashrom" at Ubuntu/Linux Mint) but please note that this package would be outdated so if you need a chip which only recently became supported by flashrom, you'd need to git clone the repository and build from source - luckily it's very simple also and well documented.
