docs[windows]: Problems installing on Windows #9

After spending much time troubleshooting installation on Windows 10 here are my learnings:

Use Python 64-bit (not 32-bit) on Windows 64bit
Use Python 3.6/3.7 (not 3.8 or 3.9, ref: https://stackoverflow.com/a/65471338/4990841)
You need MSVC (ref: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/vscpp-step-0-installation?view=msvc-160)

Some module dependencies do not work with the latest Python so caution is advised in docs.

The following step is also needed (ref: https://stackoverflow.com/a/51960782/4990841)

import nltk
nltk.download('stopwords')

Hi. Thanks for flagging up those issues. I will get it tested on Windows machines and update the repo.

Thanks
