Your question seems strangely worded: VPC doesn't "read windows software".
VPC enables you to RUN WINDOWS... Once you have installed & booted Windows you may then install & run an APPLICATION that reads databases, or an (Windows) application that is specificallly designed to process a particular genealogical database.
The question would seem to be, "What (Windows) APP will I need to input (read) a particular database?" That would be something to look up in the specs of that database app.
Am I understanding your needs?
