Dear Jim,
have you tried using the SageMath installer for Windows
that Erik Bray has produced, funded by OpenDreamKit?
It is more lightweight than the virtual machine solution,
and integrates better with the Windows environment.
It is still in alpha stage but there are more and more reports
of it working well, both under Windows 8 and Windows 10.
If you want to try it out, it's the .exe from the first item at
https://github.com/embray/sage-windows/releases/
The only requirement, I think, is a 64-bit version of Windows.
At the time of writing this email, the latest version is
"SageMath-7.4 (Windows installer 0.1a4)". There have
been delays in catching up with Sage 7.5 and Sage 7.6
but hopefully, as discussed in the thread that vdelecroix
pointed to, the SageMath installer for Windows should
catch up with the general release by the time Sage 8.0
comes out, and stay in sync thereafter.
Samuel
