You can work in Windows. On usual hosting you can do most file manipulations through FTP manager (like FreeCommander or TotalCommander), so you don't need learn folllowing linux commands ls (list directory content), cd (change dir), mv (move, rename), cp (copy), rm (delete), mkdir (create dir), rm -R (remove dir with content), touch (create empty file), cat (list file content)
Only few actions require SSH (and in it Linux commands), where you need basic linux commands like: chmod (set file attributes like +x to possibility execute the file), chown (change owner of the file),.. But sometimes you don't need (or you cannot) use SSH and this is done in admin interface of the hosting. So no problem if you have linux hosting - you need no or minimum linux knowledges. However if you will learn linux, you can then see why linux is better then windows, and you can develop under lets say Debian much easier.
