-Follow [hnsd](https://github.com/handshake-org/hnsd) build instructions for windows. Copy hnsd.exe binary and its dependencies (libcrypto, libssl and libunbound dlls) into the `fingertip/builds/windows` directory.
-You no longer need to use MSYS shell.
+Follow [hnsd](https://github.com/handshake-org/hnsd) build instructions for Linux. Copy hnsd binary into the `fingertip/builds/linux/appdir/usr/bin` directory.

+Due to the [difference](https://github.com/handshake-org/hnsd/issues/128) in hnsd behaviour on Windows and other platforms (and overall complexity of building for windows),
+Windows is not supported. This may change in future.
