Streamtuner2 used to run under Windows. Current versions should still, but aren't tested anymore. (There are enough alternatives there, no significant userbase.)
Streamtuner2 used to run under Windows. Current versions should still, but aren't tested anymore. 

 * Simplest option to install it is per **0install** feed:  
    [http://fossil.include-once.org/streamtuner2/doc/trunk/dev/0-st2.xml](http://fossil.include-once.org/streamtuner2/doc/trunk/dev/0-st2.xml)

    (Ought to work for Windows, MacOS, and BSD/Linux systems.)

It requires a working Python installation first. That includes Python with Gtk bindings, the requests and pyquery packages. (There are probably modern Python distributions for Windows. No idea. It's definitely not something that should be handled on a per-application basis and with PyInstaller embellishments.)
Else it requires a working Python installation first. That includes Python with Gtk bindings, the requests and pyquery packages. 

 * The available **.exe** installer is really just a self-extracting ZIP. It'll unpack to Unix-style paths `C:/usr/bin/` and `C:/usr/share/streamtuner2`.  
   (The exe is actually more suitable now as raw zip/tarball, that just happens to have a wine GUI.)

 * With the new **.pyz** package it's even easier to use however. So that's now the recommended approach. Simply start it with:

        python streamtuner2.pyz

    Or rename it to have a **.pyzw** extension, in case your setup already picks that up.

 * In either case, you'll have to create a desktop shortcut yourself.
 * A simpler alternative might be using the [0install package for streamtuner2](http://fossil.include-once.org/streamtuner2/doc/trunk/dev/0-st2.xml).

Streamtuner2 is primarily developed for BSD/Linux platforms. It's platform-agnostic through Python. On Windows there are enough alternatives already (more bling, mostly just limited in station sources), thus no significant userbase. Which is why this isn't considered a target.
