Running Kali Linux on Seemless Mode and Window Mode using Win-Kex.

In this article, we will improve the support of WSL(Windows Subsystem Linux) by running and installing Kali Linux on windows in a desktop GUI environment using Win-Kex. Also, we will utilize the windows terminal application to use command-line techniques and shells like PowerShell and Command Prompt in multiple tabs.

The motivation behind this article is to introduce a feasible methodology that enables individuals to quickly test their respective applications on a Linux operating system.

Prerequisite

• Basic knowledge of Windows Command Prompt or PowerShell
• Windows 10 OS version and above

Key Takeaway

• It will enable Kali Linux enthusiasts to acquire a quick Linux experience.
• It will create a suitable testing environment for developers.
• It will enable individuals to work with shells in multiple tabs.
• It will allow individuals to access the same file/directory using both Kali and Windows OS.
• It will enable individuals already using WSL to utilize a desktop GUI environment for an already installed Kali Linux.
