I'm happy to take a pull request for this change, but I have no way of testing the new image. Would someone be able to test this?

If you can provide the build image, I able to test it.

You'd have to build it yourself, see the Dockerfile in the project repository. You can change the image there and test both the image build process and running of the built image.

I didn't have any Windows environment with Docker. The AKS nodes are using containerd. Maybe its possible to build intermediate images through Github Actions

Same here 😆. I'll have a look at Github Actions for this, I may be able to build an intermediate image in my forked version of the repo sometime this week

You could use the Azure container registry to build the image.

az acr build --image sample/hello-world:v1
--registry myContainerRegistry008
--file Dockerfile .

You can also build windows container on linux, using cross os builds

ARG BASE=mcr.microsoft.com/oss/kubernetes/windows-host-process-containers-base-image:v1.0.0

FROM --platform=$BUILDPLATFORM golang:1.21 as builder
ARG TARGETARCH
ARG TARGETOS

# Get dependencies
WORKDIR /w
COPY go.mod go.sum ./
RUN go mod download
RUN go install github.com/prometheus/promu@latest

# Build windows_exporter
COPY . ./
RUN GOOS=$TARGETOS GOARCH=$TARGETARCH make windows_exporter.exe

FROM $BASE
COPY --from=builder /w/windows_exporter.exe /windows_exporter.exe
ENTRYPOINT ["windows_exporter.exe"]

Then

docker buildx build -t a --platform=windows/amd64 .
