Windows 10: SSH into Windows from Linux and run CLI/GUI apps

I do not get used to wsl, and I do not think wsl2 is going to be the better solution. I run a Linux VM on my Windows hypervisor, I mounted my C drive and I'm connecting to it via shh. My first Idea was to write a bash script, that connects from the Linux VM via ssh to the hypervisor, and it would then run an application. Like this:

alias subl = "ssh localhost@windows ' cmd.exe /c subl'"

But e.g. If I want to run a Graphical Application like Sublime Text, it won't start, but the Calculator do. I've enabled C Drive sharing, but I do not think that it was necessary. Then I red an article over winexe, where you have to add this regkey

reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\system" /v LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

to enable Windows Remote User Account Control but this also did not work, and I do not tried winexe, because it is outdated. I've searched the whole web, but maybe not good enough. Is there any application that can help me? Is this even possible?

ssh and Windows 10 Not Working

There are two desktop computers in my home:

One running Debian Linux and one running Windows 10.

They both access the Web through a wireless router (Verizon).

The issue is that I cannot access the Windows box via ssh (OpenSSH or PuTTY).

I am able to access the Linux box from the Windows box - via ssh (via both OpenSSH and PuTTY).



For the sake of simplicity and in order to eliminate Linux from the equation, I tried:

ssh localhost

ssh 192.168.1.2

ssh HOME



ssh matt@localhost

ssh matt@192.168.1.2

ssh matt@ HOME

(where localhost, 192.168.1.2, and HOME are all the Windows box).

None of those 3 worked - either in PuTTY or in OpenSSH.

I either get:

Connection to localhost closed by remote host.

Connection to localhost closed.



Or I get:

ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.2 port 22: Connection timed out

-

I wanted to make sure that I could access this PC from another in one way or another
- so I went ahead and created a homegroup which this computer and another household Windows 10 (laptop) are part of. That other Windows 10 PC
is able to access this PC (and, for what it's worth, this PC can access the laptop).

Note that a firewall runs on the Windows box. But I get the same results whether it's up or down.

Anyone know what's going on?

TIA, Matt

 

Disk defragmenter won't open in GUI or CLI.

Alright. I posted it in the technet forum (Disk defragmenter won't open in GUI or CLI.). Thanks

 

Disk defragmenter won't open in GUI or CLI.

Hello,

We have a specific set of systems that run a special piece of software that is configured by a vendor. For some reason the disk defragmenter will not open. All systems are windows server 2016. CLI and GUI, not opening. Nothing reported in the windows system
or application event logs.

I've looked all over the Internet for ways you can disable a system from starting the disk defragmenter. No luck. I also reached out to the vendor, which are looking into this.

Is there a registry setting somewhere that is used to prevent it from opening?
