-After installation of WSL2 according to [https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/wsl/install-win10 https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/install-win10], I installed [https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ MobaXterm] as the Xserver. When the Windows firewall asked whether it should allow MobaXterm communciation, I answered "yes" for both private and public networks.

+If you want to install CCP4 as a regular user, you need (as this is Linux):

-sudo chown MYWSLNAME /opt/xtal
 A few libraries are needed before CCP4 installation (tcsh is needed by CCP4, the others are mostly graphics libraries):
   sudo apt install tcsh libqt5opengl5 libqt5printsupport5 libqt5gui5 libxcb-render0 libxcb-shm0 libglu1-mesa libgomp1

 Performance of coot is good enough for occasional work. XDSGUI and multi-threaded XDS work as expected. For reading .h5 files, the NEGGIA plugin works correctly, but the DURIN plugin currently crashes (a [https://github.com/DiamondLightSource/durin/issues/22 bug] has been reported).
