      I’m afraid that most of the popular sites run on Linux, and very few on Windows. So it might be a difficult search.

      I would NEVER count on that API on common versions of Windows such as Home or Pro. It might be on Windows Server version but here’s another reason I’d NEVER count on this. I’m seeing a lot of DEPRACATION of API calls in the 32 bit versions.

      If I wanted to build server side apps I’d demand the following.
      1. A current version of Windows Server. Do not accept old 2008, 2012 Server copies.
      2. That IIS is installed and up to date.

      Then and only then I might count on the API working.
