In document it says:

NOTE: In the GUI and in a terminal supporting |modifyOtherKeys|, CTRL-I can be mapped separately from , on the condition that CTRL-I is mapped before , otherwise the mapping applies to both.

but this not working:

nmap <C-I> <C-I>
nmap <Tab> <Cmd>echo 'test'<CR>

In addition, on GUI Windows and is binded too.

What's more, I have tried au VimEnter * test_mswin_event("set_keycode_trans_strategy", {strategy: "experimental"}) but it doesn't work.

@mao-yining looks like the windows build doesnt have modifyOtherKeys at all

In addition, on GUI Windows <C-V> and <C-S-V> is binded too.

this is because you chosen to map them during installation (it is optional)
see

:h mswin.vim
