Yes, you would have to have a copy of windows and some kind of windows
screen reader. Either buy one use it in the demo or already have it or use a

then you are set all you need to do is remove it from that Windows PC or buy
another licensing for it.

I think if you did this, you then have to pay for a copy of Windows, and
then pay for a copy of a windows screen reader.
