AppImage completely alternatives .exe One-time build for cross-platform use
Possibly with WSL2 it works basically out of the box. I have never tried because I am not a Windows user.
Hi, is there any update regarding building creating AppImages on Windows?
Is there an AppImage that can be used on Windows systems?
People say that AppImages can run on Windows with WSL2, but I have not tested it.
You can use wim's packaged format on Windows, And the file in the wim format can be compressed ,and use the dism tool to mount wim files, but dism does not support offset parameters
@microsoft
Or use ISO as the packaging format and use PowerShell to mount ISO files, but ISO does not support compression, but also does not support the offset parameter.
What if you could suggest that dism in Windows support the offset parameter so that you can use appimage on Windows?
Investigate the WinFSP FUSE compatibility layer for a possible future Windows version of AppImage.
Note that I won't be spending time to figure this out myself as I am not interested in using Windows, but I would welcome contributors to look into it.
