Hi Erik,

Thanks for collaborate on this one. I guess as Cassandra is an Apache Open Source solution there might be a Community (open) version of Cassandra. I think I got what I need from here: https://medium.com/@sushantgautam_930/simple-way-to-install-cassandra-in-windows-10-6497e93989e6

Thanks

@dromero.canada_187268 The steps for installing Apache Cassandra on Windows machines does not exist in any official sites because Windows has not been "formally" supported for a number of years due to a lack of contributors who have access to Windows machines.

Let us know how you go with the installation. Perhaps share your experience in another post for the benefit of other community members here. Cheers!
