Another topic for those who doesnot want to Install ubuntu and use Windows 10 feature
The Windows 10 feature Windows Subsystem for Linux:
This can give you ability to run Linux bash command but thats not what you want.
For those who want to stick with Windows Subsystem for Linux
You do this by going “System Settings > Advanced Windows Update options” and selecting your Insider Preview update setting to the far right. This sets your Windows 10 update to the the Fast Ring.
After this check for updates, apply all of them, and restart your PC. This gives you its beta operating system so don’t do this on your production machine. Microsoft makes many updates to its Fast Ring releases and adding WSL, Ubuntu, and Bash are only part of them.
Then, you must turn on Developer Mode via Settings > Update & security >
For developers. Next, search for “Windows Features” and choose “Turn Windows features on or off” and
enable Windows Subsystem for Linux
