That win64 is an unsigned EXE file.  I am not a DEV or programmer and do not know how to verify the integrity of such a file.

As such I am unwilling to install it on my computer.   ANY thoughts for me?
Download VirtualBox or something and use virtual machines. Create one for each fork. Do what you need to do and then delete.

I built the BitcoinDiamond and SuperBitcoin from source using the Linux (Ubuntu) Subsystem on Windows 10 (just out of curiosity, but it's basically the same as building on Linux) following the 'Advanced Instructions' near the bottom of this post... 'https://medium.com/@jimmysong/bitcoin-diamond-super-bitcoin-bitcore-what-you-need-to-know-f49c35688a39'. Had no problems doing so, although I have yet to run them to sync the blockchains, and claim whatever is the equivalent to the $500 worth of BTC I had at that time.

Just make sure you create virtual drives large enough to cover the blockchain size. I created 150GB virtual drives.
