I was looking through the readme file for Window* and I think I am starting to understand the source of your frustration. The readme is still in pre-release and some things are not yet clear. In addition to the readme file, you might want to read the Quick-start Guide for Windows* Users.
To run micras, the coprocessor must be up and running:
micctrl --start
and micras must be started as a service
net start micras
