Is this something I can do in Windows or is it a compiling issue?

usb_open error -3
Please fix the device permissions, e.g. by installing the udev rules file rtl-sdr.rules

After displaying these lines in the CMD window, the program starts and decodes.

Did you successfully install Zadig?

I have been using RTL-SDRs on this computer for years.  Yes, Zadig is installed.

You can change the permissions on the port with chmod, but there will be those who say that's not the right way to fix the problem. Personally,  I don't see a downside. 

sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0  (or whatever your port is called)

OK for Linux (sudo chmod), but I'm running Windows 10x64.

I will give that a try.  Thanks.

OK, tried the alternative version.

After supplying SoapySDR.dll and rtlsdr.dll so that it would run, it still refused to run but came up with a new error.
