You can install it using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). I believe it comes pre-installed with Windows 10, but you can also install the Windows Terminal app on microsoft store, which gives you options to use PowerShell, Ubuntu, Command Prompt, etc.

Then open Ubuntu there and install both PostgreSQL and AGE under the $HOME directory : use the command cd ~ to go there. And PostgreSQL must be version 11 or the ALPHA version of 12. Then you just have to follow the standard Linux installation for AGE and PostgreSQL.

As a Windows user you can download and install Apache-Age by first installing the Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) using the steps stated in this link

After the installation you'll be able to run Linux on Windows by running bash on the Windows PowerShell CLI:

PS C:\Users\MY_PC> bash

Or wsl

PS C:\Users\MY_PC> wsl

Alternatively you could download and set up a vagrant box for Windows install vagrant, for more info visit vagrant up

You can either install it in using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) which basically gives you all the functionalities of Linux and its terminal inside your Windows OS. Refer to this link on instructions on how to use it. There are extensions for it too which can allow you to access the Linux directories in a GUI window. Here's a video tutorial on how to set up the GUI.

The other option, and the one I recommend would be to install a Virtual Machine (VM) inside your Windows system using Oracle Virtual Box. Follow the instructions on this page for installing it. I recommend using the latest stable release of Ubuntu.
