This function works by bundling source package, and then uploading to https://win-builder.r-project.org/. Once building is complete you'll receive a link to the built package in the email address listed in the maintainer field. It usually takes around 30 minutes. As a side effect, win-build also runs R CMD check on the package, so check_win is also useful to check that your package is ok on windows.

check_win_devel(pkg = ".", args = NULL, manual = TRUE,
  email = NULL, quiet = FALSE, ...)

check_win_release(pkg = ".", args = NULL, manual = TRUE,
  email = NULL, quiet = FALSE, ...)

check_win_oldrelease(pkg = ".", args = NULL, manual = TRUE,
  email = NULL, quiet = FALSE, ...)
