I've tried cpu mining using windows but I couldn't keep my computer running long enough to hit any POW. And, there's no pool mining for steem, only solo mining. You can check @tuck-fheman 's post on Windows mining.

Here's the link to the post.

You can only mine with CPUs, and I haven't tried it.. I am not sure how profitable it is at the moment. I tried looking for that data, but there is none that I could fine.

I haven't tried yet personally so can't advise properly on that matter

have you tried the Option c?
