Invoking Windows API on board startup

I'm making a pretty basic Peripheral Pad for media controls and information output off a SAMD21 Board.
I'm trying to find a way on the software end for my board to pull some very basic but otherwise, neat pieces of information from windows. Primarily, date and time + music metadata.
I know those are all accessible through the .NET API, but does anyone know of any particular ways to have my board actually invoke the API over serial to get that information?

Welcome to the forum

Something would need to be running on the PC to send the data out. If that "something" could be invoked by keyboard input then a suitable Arduino could send the required keystrokes and could receive data from the PC
