You can use the libusbx Windows binary here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusbx/files/releases/1.0.15/binaries/
Download file: libusbx-1.0.15-win.7z

If your Windows is 32bit, copy 32bit libusb-1.0.dll into the Windows
system32 directory.

If your Windows is 64bit, copy 64bit libusb-1.0.dll into the
Windows\system32 directory and copy 32bit libusb-1.0.dll into the
Windows\SysWow64 directory.
