Windows installation instruction needs updating to the following ELSE error will occur

Issue #93 resolved
Tyler Durden created an issue

If we follow the instructions listed below, in my case an error will occur

virtualenv --python python3 .virtualenv
. .virtualenv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Doing this command does not work and will get an error

virtualenv --python python3 .virtualenv

The path python3 (from --python=python3) does not exist

What needs to be done instead is this

virtualenv -p python.exe .virtualenv

Then we need to do

.virtualenv\Scripts\activate

So the update instructions should be like this

virtualenv -p python.exe .virtualenv
.virtualenv\Scripts\activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
