It sounds like you really need is a database of some kind.

If redis won't work for windows, then I would look at MongoDB.

MongoDB works great with python and can function similar to redis. Here are the install docs for PyMongo: http://api.mongodb.com/python/current/installation.html?_ga=2.78008212.1422709185.1517530606-587126476.1517530605

Also, many people have brought up SQlite. I think you were concerned that it only allows one writer at a time, but this is not really a problem for you to worry about. I think what it is saying is that, if there are two writers, the second will be blocked until the first is finished. This is probably fine for your situation.
