I succeeded in running Spinning Up on Windows 11 via WSL 2.
The procedure linked in the official page (https://github.com/openai/spinningup/issues/23) did not work for me. Also, it is not necessary to use Xming X Window server anymore.
This is what I did:
1) From Microsoft Store, install: Windows Subsystem for Linux
2) From Microsoft Store, install: Ubuntu
3) Launch Ubuntu to finish installation and configuration
4) From Ubuntu command line: sudo apt update, then sudo apt full-upgrade
5) sudo apt install x11-apps
6) sudo apt install octave (via this step the packets necessary for the rendering parts are installed)
7) Download Miniconda3 Linux 64 bit (most recent one) from here https://docs.conda.io/projects/miniconda/en/latest/miniconda-other-installer-links.html (it's a .sh file)
8) Copy the Miniconda installer in a Linux path (e. g. under /home)
9) From Linux command line, install Miniconda with "bash [filename].sh"
10) Close and reopen Ubuntu terminal
11) conda create -n spinningup python=3.6
12) conda activate spinningup
13) conda install -c conda-forge mpi4py mpich
14) pip install opencv-python==3.4.13.47 (more recent versions might not work)
15) sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libopenmpi-dev
16) sudo mkdir /usr/lib/dri (these 3 steps are necessary if a file_not_found error occurs)
17) sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86-64-linux-gnu/dri/swrast-dri.so /usr/lib/dri/
18) sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86-64-linux-gnu/dri/radeonsi-dri.so /usr/lib/dri/
19) git clone https://github.com/openai/spinningup.git
20) cd spinningup
21) pip install -e .
22) Follow the steps in "Check your install" from https://spinningup.openai.com/en/latest/user/installation.html
