You don't need an academic license, as there are free VMs available (they expire after a while, though): https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines It seems that the current free VM will expire in 4 days. After that, probably a new one will be available that expires some time later (not sure about the exact time frame of those VMs). Alternatively, you can download VMs meant for web testing at https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/ which expire after 90 days. Ciao, Dscho
