Use virtual box.
It's very simple, free and doesn't require any special CPUs.
I use it all the time on windows 7 with the Lilybunto.iso which you can
get from here:

Although someone will need to confirm that you can run frescobaldi on
this image.
You can get Virtual Box from here:

I am no linux expert but had this up and running in less than an hour. I
use 500mb of RAM for the Linux image and that is plenty with about 8GB
for disk which is more than enough.
I don't use frescobaldi, as I have no problems with using gedit or
similar. I much prefer it.

The Dual-Boot would be an alternative to installing Kubuntu as a virtual

if your cpu doesn't support virtualizing you can also run colinux on
Windows and use an X-Server such as Xming on Windows. Does not work with
x68_64 cpus.
frescobaldi is packaged by debian as well. I think colinux
allows you to use some Linux images. I don't know how up to date they
are though.
Alternatives: Use any editor and autohotkey or such to automate
closing pdf viewer and reopening it? Don't think you can replace .pdf
file in place on windows as many applications do lock files (Foxit
reader does)
