I think you would need to run it in a VM: https://owncloud.org/blog/owncloud-server-8-1-will-not-support-windows-as-server-platform-natively/.
Incidently, the Owncloud founder has forked the project into Nextcloud and I believe he has taken many of the devs with him so I'm not sure what the future holds for Owncloud.

Do you really need tat kind of "sync" ability in the cloud?
My personal setup is a home media server which runs plex for my media needs and then documents and stuff that isn't "data intensive" I throw into a free dropbox account.
I very nearly went Owncloud not long ago and I just couldn't bring myself to jump away from Dropbox even though the Personal&business support on Linux is pants.

I have done the oposite. I used to use a free Dropbox account but when it started filling up I switched to Owncloud for internal use syncing data between iOS devices, Mac and Windows computers. I still use Dropbox for syncing 1password and TextExpander/Breevy data between devices but that is about all.
I have had OneDrive for just over a year but have only just started to use it outside Office. It may eventually replace my usage of Ownloud but requires an Office subscription that I may not want to be locked into.
