The conda environment in this repository has only been tested on linux-based systems. I believe the environment.yml file in this repository contains mostly linux-specific packages - one potential workaround might be to create a fresh Python 3.8.12 conda environment from scratch on your Windows machine, and then install the packages only in the requirements.txt file using pip. This would hopefully get you most of the way there although is not a tested approach as I don't have a Windows machine myself. Hope this helps!
