Installing Paraview
 

Hi guys,
Please, I have been able to install OpenFOAM on windows 10 using the Linux command but I can't get to install Paraview for my post-processing.
Any help will be very well appreciated. Thanks

I think you mean the Windows 10 Developer mode where you have used Ubuntu Base and then installation of OpenFOAM.

For Paraview, you need to use the windows version of Paraview. First, you need to install Paraview in windows version. Try to locate your openfoam output files in the hard disk. If you type "touch blabla.openFoam" in ubuntu terminal, you could view them in win-paraview

Thank you for the reply. I have succeeded in installing the paraview and adding an alias in my .bashrc.
I have also added atom and gedit as text editors. but When I enter gedit system/blockMeshDict, it opens an empty text file. I don't understand. same with the atom too

Quick answer: It is likely due to running the commands from within the wrong folder. If you run the following commands:

1. The first one will tell you which is the current path you are located at.
2. The second one will tell you the content of the current folder.
   • Note: the second command is the lower case form of "LS -L". Usually there is an alias for it, namely "ll" (LL).
