- One method, probably the least intrusive would be WSL Windows Subsystem for Linux [1]
- Another option would be installing VirtualBox [2] if the license does not conflict with anything in your company the extensions have a restrictive license. Then grab a small Linux distribution.
- If your company / organization already has a license for VMWare that would be yet another way.
There are tutorials on how to do these on Youtube if you prefer video instructions.

I've successfully run Linux and FreeBSD virtual machines using Hyper-V on Windows 10.
