Hey,

currently the windows install is quite complicated requiring a seperate X Server. However using (wsl2's gui support)[https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps]
makes this not necessary anymore. I tested under Win 11 using AMDs vGPU driver by simply running
sudo apt-get install pdf-presenter-console
and then simply running pdfpc my.pdf after navigating to it. It worked completly fine, does not require taskbar deactivating or anything like that and is in my opinion a better option and should at least be mentioned in the readme.

Under #700 there is a PR for a windows installer which allows you "single click" installation without WSL/Command Line magic.

Nevertheless you can create a PR to change the current documentation.
