There is composite index on baas column

CREATE TABLE public.desktop
(
id integer NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('desktop_id_seq'::regclass),
recordtype character(5) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
klass character(1) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
baas character(8) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
liigid character(1) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL DEFAULT ''::bpchar,
jrk numeric(4,0) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
...
CONSTRAINT desktop_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id),
CONSTRAINT desktop_baas_not_empty CHECK (baas <> ''::bpchar),
CONSTRAINT desktop_id_check CHECK (id > 0),
CONSTRAINT desktop_recordtype_check CHECK (recordtype = 'Aken'::bpchar OR recordtype = 'Veerg'::bpchar)
)

TABLESPACE pg_default;
CREATE INDEX desktop_baas_liigid_idx
ON public.desktop USING btree
(baas COLLATE pg_catalog."default" ASC NULLS LAST, liigid COLLATE pg_catalog."default" ASC NULLS LAST)
TABLESPACE pg_default;

Maybe it is possible to force postgres in windows to use the same locale as in Linux. Locales are actually the same.
