Steps to setup...

Install Python for Windows from www.python.org

Download https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/
Open CMD in the same folder as the vs_BuildTools.exe download...
Run this Command: Install vs_BuildTools.exe --layout .\VisualCppBuildTools_Full (~15GB)
Await the command window with the layout % to finish installation.

Otherwise you'll get errors when trying to run these commands:
error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required. Get it with "Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools": http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools

Install python-lzma module via: pip install backports.lzma
Maybe this would work too, idk: pip install pylzma
######################################################################
Download binwalk zip from binwalk repo at GitHub: https://github.com/ReFirmLabs/binwalk/releases
Extract and Open the directory, then open cmd there.
Install binwalk via CMD by entering: "python setup.py install".
######################################################################
In CMD type "where python" to find where your python install is located.
You should get something like this: C:\Users\MyUsername\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\python.exe

Copy this location to clipboard.

Open text editor to edit this location...
Change the appending "python.exe" to "binwalk" and add double slashes to all slashes like so:

C:\\Users\\MyUsername\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python36\\Scripts\\binwalk
Copy this new location to clipboard...
######################################################################
Now, Download the binwalk.py script from here and keep it in a isolated folder at Desktop.
Open this folder and edit the binwalk.py script in text editor...

Change the line:
command = 'python "C:\\Program Files\\Python37\\Scripts\\binwalk" ' + strl

To your python location (remove everything inside quotes, and paste the new location above):
command = 'python "C:\\Users\\MyUsername\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python36\\Scripts\\binwalk" ' + strl

Open cmd in the binwalk.py script folder just downloaded and install pyinstaller via: "pip install pyinstaller".
######################################################################
Now in the same folder, run: "pyinstaller --onefile binwalk.py", This will create an executable (.exe) of binwalk.py
Navigate to dist folder inside current folder where you can find the executable file, Copy it to "C:\Windows\System32"
######################################################################
(Now you can remove the previously created folder at Desktop.)
######################################################################
Open cmd from ANY directory with the .bin/etc file to decrypt and run binwalk as usual.
