Obviously TCP/UDP are supported in Windows but are there any other transport protocols? I know that SCTP and DCCP exist but cant seem to find any reference to them with regards to their support in Windows OSes and only managed to find third party drivers but none seem to be past Windows 7. Is the lack of support due to lack of use or another reason?
What transport protocols are supported in Windows 10?

I will not claim a prize, but I would like to share my experience in the field of network packages. I recently started learning the Scapy tool written in Python. With the help of this tool, I was able to more clearly and clearly understand the work of network packets and, moreover, understand how they work and are supported. This tool helped me a lot. Maybe he will give you some answers to your questions.
>>> ls(SCTP)
sport : ShortField = (None)
dport : ShortField = (None)
tag : XIntField = (None)
chksum : XIntField = (None)
>>> a=SCTP()
>>> a.show()
###[ SCTP ]###
sport= None
dport= None
tag= None
chksum= None
mostly used traport layer network protocols are tcp and udp yes TCP (1981), UDP (1980)
Stream Control Transmission Protocol aka SCTP (2007) combines TCP and UDP, reliable as tcp, uses datagrams like in UDP and supports multiple parallel streams of chunks
SCTP RFC4960
Datagram Congestion Control Protocol aka DCCP (2006) provides bidirectional unicast connections of congestion-controlled unreliable datagrams.
DCCP RFC4340
Edit: the following is the conclusion of a paper written while back
