Porting my very simple C code from Unixen/macOS to Windows
Between -std=c99 and removing these headers, you're missing time definitions (struct timeval, gettimeofday) and option parsing definitions (struct option, getopt_long). Mingw-w64 provides all this for compatibility, but MSVC has none of these, so you'll need to write replacements. I've written embeddable, public domain implementations of getopt and something like getopt_long, in case that helps. These are how I deal with option parsing portability.

I recently made a simple project in C. Would be really helpful if someone could review my code.
The option parser is crude and doesn't follow conventions. Particularly the lack of -- support (disables option parsing) would make it impossible to use safely in scripts. If you don't want to use the system or toolchain-provided getopt, here's a public domain, embeddable implementation: getopt.h

How to properly handle position non-specific program arguments? ./my_prog --format:"mp3"
On unix-like systems there's a getopt function for parsing short options. Mingw-w64 has one as well, to cover Windows programs. If I care about portability, I just embed my own so it not only works everywhere, it behave the same everywhere, too.

Debian discusses vendoring again
Not only the GNU, you have an example in this thread where someone suggested to use or roll something similar to https://github.com/skeeto/getopt/blob/master/getopt.h, which, surprise, depends on strchr, a function that solves a much trivial problem than POSIX getopt, to begin with.
