        UNTESTED... But if it works means no change to your procedures...

        Presuming you are using W10 or later... 

        Activate the Windows Subsystem for Linux ([old style] Control Panel /
Programs / Programs and Features... Turn Windows Features On or Off...
Scroll down, it's the third from the bottom)

        Windows "Microsoft Store"; Search "Debian"; Download/Install (set a
log-in account/password). (Unfortunately, it's not the most recent version
-- still on Buster...)

        Open Debian instance console (to my knowledge, no graphical
applications are supported); do normal stuff to bring apt up-to-date.

w-scan/oldstable 20170107-2 amd64
  Channel scanning tool for DVB and ATSC channels

wulfraed@ElusiveUnicorn:~$

        Install and test. Windows partitions are accessible as
/mnt/<driveletter>
