The programs of the [[XDS]] package as well as [[XDSGUI]], [[XDSSTAT]], [[XDSCC12]] and so on may be run on 64bit Windows 10 within the [http://www.pcworld.com/article/3050473/windows/heres-how-windows-10s-ubuntu-based-bash-shell-will-actually-work.html Linux Subsystem for Windows] (WSL). This (easily!) installs a Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS environment, which supports the apt package manager, so in principle any software available for Ubuntu may be installed. | The programs of the [[XDS]] package as well as [[XDSGUI]], [[XDSSTAT]], [[XDSCC12]] and so on may be run on 64bit Windows 10 within the [http://www.pcworld.com/article/3050473/windows/heres-how-windows-10s-ubuntu-based-bash-shell-will-actually-work.html Linux Subsystem for Windows] (WSL).
