Which dump1090 version is it?
(MLAT forwarding being off is the correct setting by the way, don't change that)
I suppose they not so much want to disable the Windows feeders but more generally feeds which rely on the non-raw data Basestation format.
Or it was just because your feeder version was so old and they want to disable the feed for that reason. And the reason given was Windows because well why give an accurate reason...
They could have just written which formats are acceptable and which are not or what the exact policies are.
But the information towards feeders is always lacking. No idea why they can't communicate with their feeders, it's puzzling.
You should be able to specify your position on the stats page and enable MLAT in the fr24feed.ini
It will not show you results on your local map though.
Only some MLAT networks like flightaware and ADSBexchange do that.
And for that to work without problems you need dump1090 mutability 1.15 which needs to be compiled from source.
You can also use a current version of dump1090-fa
If you have dump1090 mutability version 1.14 then MLAT data will be given to the feeders and it will produce bad data.
Anyway seems the reason for them stopping your feed was most likely just the very old feed software version
