Since nginx 1.15.9 you can use higher number of worker_connections 
with the "poll" event method (only available on Windows Vista or 
newer).

Note though that this isn't the only limitation of nginx when 
running on Windows, and it's generally a bad idea to use it for 
production.  Some basic limitations are outlined in the 
documentation, see http://nginx.org/en/docs/windows.html.
