I have an old music compilation (from 2006) with a hidden track (track 0). In CD players I can play this track but never found a solution to play the track on Windows.
Is there a tool that plays 0-tracks like CD players?

There are a few, you have to rewind from the beginning of track 1 to listen to them. I know I had one or two such albums, can't recall what they were though.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_albums_with_tracks_hidden_in_the_pregap

And to the OP's question, sadly I have no idea how to play them on a computer. Googling "rip pregap hidden track" might help you ripping them though, hopefully.

So, does just opening it in Windows Explorer not work?

After time adrift among open stars,
past tides of light, and through shoals of dust,
I will return to where I began.

Two ideas:
First:
Try using another media player:
www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/media_player_classic_black_edition.html

Second:
I have come across this before as well.
To get around it -you need to use an audio ripper program.
First some things you will need:
1. A DVD/CD-ROM computer drive.
2. A room where you can get A LOT of quiet
3. A program that can rip audio from a CD:
    -Extract Audio Copy
    -Free CD-Rippers
    -Open source program- AUDACITY -Used to be owned by Creative -Audacity tutorial
    -Creative Wave Studio 6- -version 7 lost MP3 support +requires standalone ripper -here is mine -6.2.
        -i copied this software from my soundblaster card CD driver ages ago -so most legal of these IMO.
    -Adobe Audition CC
    -Audio Grabber
4. Follow these instructions:
www.howtogeek.com/228172/how-to-rip-audio-cds-to-your-pc-or-mac/
Should be easy from there.
If not feel free to ask for more assistance.

Well records, 8 tracks, audio tapes, CD's didn't last either so neither will MP3s...
ACC is still working its way to being main.

No problem.
Can the EAC program convert it to a MP3 or ACC?

I used the feature to make copy an image and create CUE Sheet. The tool scaned every track and saved as one WAV. WAV opened with AudaCity and cutted out the part of the first track from this WAV, saved/exported as MP3. The first track ist track 0 from the CD.
