No. It was in the past Eclair LN node but not anymore. Keep in mind that Windows is NOT designed to run these kind of apps. Whatever you will do, it will get worse. Don't complicate your life, keep it simple. Don't be scared to run a Linux. I was also a windows guy for many years (I worked 25 years in IT systems with a lot of Windoze servers and stuff). And read ALL of those guides. Not because I wrote them, but because will help you a lot into this new journey.
I wrote them EXACTLY for guys like you.

Bro windows will literally just decide it needs to update and restart the machine without user intervention. Imagine you cant send or receive money because Microsoft decided you need a new audio driver RIGHT NOW!
