GNU/Linux users have the various distros that package Emacs binaries
for them.  The volunteers who produce the MS-Windows binaries are in

The Emacs project doesn't support those volunteers by more than
advice, answers to questions, and asking the GNU uploading personnel
to give them upload rights.
