Lightning app for windows

[synthgauge]

Is there around an official lightning app for windows? I could only find zap wallet. It does not seem to work and is stuck syncing at 73%. If killed and launched up again it even struggles to go past 0 percent. I suspect my connection being tunneled through vpn could somehow hinder the syncing process. Could that be? There were similar issues reported on github but no solution was noticed. Is running a lightning node even available on windows?

There is nothing like an official Lightning Network app. There are currently a few different implementations which are compatible with each other. You can try Eclair if the Zap client doesn't work for you. You could also try setting up c-lightning but this might take you some time. I would go for Eclair if you are going to stick with Windows.

Eclair[1] works fine as well (runs on testnet by default). Here[2] is a quick tutorial.
