+If you are using [[other:win10wsl|Windows Subsystem for Linux and Ubuntu]] on your computer, it will be very useful to be able to access //local// Linux files from Windows!
+Open the file explorer, type ''\\wsl$'' in the location field and press ''Return'' to display the content of your local Linux files. Grab the folder icon at the left of the location field, drop it on the desktop and rename it //Local Linux//. Note: the //virtual// ''\\wsl$'' folder will only display some content if a local Linux is actually running!
