We all have some things we prefer to do on linux and others on windows. There are several solutions to have both Operating systems. Here we are showing how to do that quickly on Windows.
Step 1 - Enable the Windows Subsystem for Linux
====================
Powershell(As admin)
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
Step 2 - Check requirements for running WSL 2
====================
To update to WSL 2, you must be running Windows 10.
For x64 systems: Version 1903 or higher, with Build 18362 or higher.
