I am using this app on my Windows laptop: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/ub...ot:overviewtab.

Using this app I can run the Ubuntu command line as a separate application.
Through that command line, I have installed OpenFOAM.

I have also activated the Windows Subsystem for Linux on my Windows laptop.

My question is can I call a OpenFOAM solver that has been installed on this app through the Windows command line?

I want to call the OF solver through an external application which is based on Windows OS and not on Ubuntu. That application accepts only Windows CMD commands.

Unfortunately, I cannot download any OF package specific to Windows so I have to do this funny stuff.

I have tried playing around with the "wsl" command but it doesn't work.

Any information on this would be helpful.
