@jr0cket Hi John. I did a small change to some manifest that influence install instructions. The good news is, it's simplier now. Following two steps are no longer necessary:
scoop install extras/vcredist2010
scoop install extras/vcredist2015
I would send you a PR but I failed to find the source. Sorry.I've updated the Windows install guide to use the streamlined steps, thanks for letting me know. http://practicalli.github.io/clojure/getting-started/install-clojure.html#windows
I've added a contributing page to make it easier for people to add / update things. Thanks for pointing this out as being tricky http://practicalli.github.io/clojure/contributing.html
