Problem

(FUSE). Preferably without admin rights. An example would be sshfs, maybe via MSYS?

Fix for: Is it possible to use FUSE with Windows?

Low Risk

As far as I understand, Windows doesn't ship with anything that would let you define your own filesystem without adding some code to the kernel (i.e., a driver). So you would need admin rights. In 2010 The FUSE FAQ mention a few potential alternatives, but they all looked like vaporware except for Dokan. Dokan has been abandoned but some forks live on: Dokanx, Dokany, and more as well as at least two .NET bindings. Dokany has an SSHFS component.
