IDAKLUSolver doesn't work on Windows

[RuiheLi]

PyBaMM: 23.4.1
Python: 3.10.11

Hi @martinjrobins, I am trying to use the IDAKLUSolver on my windows, inside the virtual environment. When I try:

import pybamm
model = pybamm.lithium_ion.DFN()
sim = pybamm.Simulation(model,solver=pybamm.IDAKLUSolver(),)

It gives errors:
ImportError: KLU is not installed
from pybamm\solvers\idaklu_solver.py:113
So I go into idaklu_solver.py and copy the following lines into my jupyter notebook:

import casadi
import pybamm
import numpy as np
import numbers
import scipy.sparse as sparse

import importlib

idaklu_spec = importlib.util.find_spec("pybamm.solvers.idaklu")
print(idaklu_spec)

and it prints None.

I wonder is it because of I am using Windows? As I saw a previous discussion here

Thanks a lot!
