On October 26th, the official deepin social media account announced the launch of deepin WSL on the Microsoft Store. WSL stands for Windows Subsystem for Linux, a technology that allows users to run Linux on Windows. The news has sparked strong interest among overseas users, with many fans leaving messages expressing their excitement.
deepin's overseas fans are eager to experience deepin WSL as soon as possible. @Hans Min from the deepin Facebook group hopes to use deepin on his Windows 11 system, but as an older user, he doesn't know how to operate it and has asked for help in the Facebook group.
Another deepin enthusiast, @Eric O Flores, offered his help. Dr. Flores is from Colorado and serves as a radiation safety officer and acting director of a laboratory.
In his article, Dr. Flores introduces two methods for running deepin on a Windows system: using deepin WSL or a virtual machine (VMs).
If you choose to use deepin WSL, you will first need to install the WSL feature. You can open a PowerShell window and run a command to install WSL. After installation, you can install a Linux distribution from the Microsoft Store. For example, to install Deepin, you can run the following command: wsl --install -d deepin. Once the Linux distribution is installed, you can start it by running the following command: wsl -d .
If using a virtual machine, you will first need to install virtualization software such as VMware Workstation or VirtualBox. After installing the software, you can create a new virtual machine and install a Linux distribution on it.
Dr. Flores concludes by saying that which method you choose to run deepin on Windows depends on your personal needs and preferences.
