The regional models that ran on Windows are UN red list endangered species. Unless or until someone doing a PhD at one of the many universities around the world where climate research takes place has a need for such tasks there won't be any more. This link gives details of how to run Linux tasks using WSL. Virtual Box is another also free option for doing so. For native Windows tasks, all that you might get in the foreseeable future is the occasional re-send from a task someone else has crashed and with thousands of Windows computers connected to the project, the chances of any individual computer getting one is slim.

Sorry that I can't bring more hope.
