Can you clarify why you ask this? Because yes, people have been successful using the Melodic port that MS has created on Windows 10.

The video you link to shows ROS on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). The IEEE article you link to actually describes something else: Microsoft did a native port of ROS Melodic to Windows 10. That runs without WSL.

See Introducing ROS1 on Windows for the Discourse post by Microsoft about their native port.
