The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a compatibility layer for running native Linux binaries on Windows 10. It allows developers to run a GNU/Linux environment - including most command-line tools, utilities, and applications directly on Windows 10.
If you are running Windows 10 Build 20262 or higher, you can easily install WSL on Windows 10 by entering a command-line option as a Windows PowerShell command. Here we will learn how to install WSL on Windows 10.
wsl.exe –install
This command will install everything that you need to run WSL, including the Linux distribution itself with just one line. Once rebooted, the Ubuntu app will open on the screen and will ask you to enter a username and a password for your WSL account.
Do note that the command will run on Windows 10 Build 20262 or later.
