Windows Priv Esc - OSCP :|

Evening All,
I am looking at starting OSCP in the near future, I have done my fair share of vulnhub VMs (I know thats not enough by itself) and for my day job I'm a SOC engineer, blue team etc etc..
The trouble I am having is I work with Linux every day so popping Linux boxes comes a little easier to me that Windows.. Sadly I have no Windows admin experience so I am hoping someone on here could give me a few hints and tips re Windows Priv Esc.
From what I understand there is no one "root" location, root in the windows world is the C:\ or
\ etc is that correct?
Is there any commonalities between the two, ie does windows have a version of cronjob, are permissions similar really the bare bones basics of Windows Admin and common pit falls?
Thanks for the taking the time I appreciative its a bit vague!
Ta!
