Windows guide

[IkelAtomig]

This is a successor to #1380 Pull request by me. Things that are there will follow here but in a paced manner with concise information.

I have stated the reason in the old one for its closure.

If you are suggesting big Changes, make a PR other than that do Code reviews.

Do not comment about your suggestions in this PR as I want it clean and don't want it confusing either for me or to the contributors. So, Suggest them in Issue #166. I am following it.

There will be no ETA for this. I will work on this in my Free time and try finish ASAP.

I am at some point going to have another look at this, we should incorporate https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/pull/1979/files into it as an tip.

[dngray]

This discussion https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/discussions/1281 brought up that we should remind users to update their systems.

We should probably have some mention about BIOS updates too, https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/discussions/1280 as not all systems this comes through Windows Update. Of course there will only be only general instructions as different vendors use different update tools on Windows.

New things incoming, ETA - May 30th. Stay tuned.

We should probably decide which PR is going to be merged into main, whether this one or #2452 and merge these two together.

I have not read over either closely yet. Intention was to clear #2268 #2437 first.

[IkelAtomig]

@dngray - Not a problem. I have to rework a lot on this as I haven't updated it more than a year and I haven't made my writing visible yet on the preview. Need to add it in mkdocs.yml

If you merge the other one first, Maybe I will modify this one as some suggestions to it.

Let's see. I hope, I could start working on this before you come back to Windows section.

@oppressor1761 - Shall we two work on this together or separately - Totally your choice ?
