I run Emacs on Windows 10. I have installed Dired-rsync in Emacs but cannot copy files. I get this error:

dired-rsync: failed (see *rsync @ Sat Jan 11 13:50:29 2020 for details)

Does this package run on Windows? Does it support copying locally?

I haven't personally tested it but if you look at the buffer it should show why it failed. Is rsync installed and visible in Emacs' path?

This is the error I get:

cmd:C:/ProgramData/Chocolatey/lib/rsync/cwRsync_5.5.0_x86_Free/bin/rsync.exe -az --info=progress2 "c:/home/docs" "g:/"
dired-rsync: failed (see *rsync @ Sun Jan 12 20:01:35 2020 for details)

If you take that command and run it locally on your windows shell does it work? Have you got an SSH agent setup for passwordless syncing?
