WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) will run linux under Windows, but, AFAIK, only text console programs.
WSL2 can run GUI programs too, but it is Win 11 only.
WSL2 came with Windows 10 version 2004. I think windows 11 has made it better. I used to use X410 as an X server with WSL1. But with WSL2 it is no longer needed, it just works somehow. -- Len Sorensen
