    Windows 10 subsystem for Linux, Ubuntu

    Can Ubuntu or Linux be run on Windows 10 subsystem in full mode such as running Hadoop, Hive, Java in Ubuntu subsystem of Windows 10? Or just the basic bash, sudo commands only?

    Vista Ultimate - 'User' Folder Location

    No tried that.

    Can copy the entire folder to D; but Windows still points to C as the location. Can change personal folders location to a folder on D;, but this still leaves hidden files etc on C;. Thus meaning there are 2 Users folders. Have managed to change the Public folder location to D;, with some registry tweaks, but this doesnt seem to work for the entire folder.

    any more suggestions

    Unable to locate ubuntu folders from windows subsystem

    Ubuntu terminal not displaying git messages correctly

    Hi Patrick,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that the output for Ubuntu terminal is not showing properly for GIT commands.



    I suggest you to try re-enabling Windows Subsystem for Linux and then uninstalling and re-installing Ubuntu from Microsoft Store. Follow the steps to disable Windows Subsystem for Linux and uninstall Ubuntu.



    Disable Windows Subsystem for Linux:



    1. Press Windows key + R. This will open
      Run. Alternatively, you can go to Start and search for Run.
    2. In Run dialog box, type
      appwiz.cpl       and hit enter.
    3. Now on the left hand pane click on
      Turn Windows features on or off.
    4. Now on the Windows feature window scroll down and uncheck the box next to
      Windows Subsystem for Linux.
    5. Click on OK and Restart the PC.


    Uninstall the Ubuntu app:



    1. Go to Settings >
      Apps > Apps & features.
    2. Now search for Ubuntu app.
    3. Click on the app and click on
      Uninstall      .
    4. Follow the onscreen instructions.


    To enable the Windows Subsystem for Linux you can refer the article

    Windows Subsystem for Linux Installation Guide for Windows 10    .



    If the issue persists, I suggest you to post your query on

    TechNet forums     as they have dedicated support for issues related to Windows Subsystem for Linux.



    Hope it helps.
