Windows11DragAndDropToTaskbarFix VS wslg

Here's the Github for it.

I don't know, but yeah, he's right, they could have done it easily. I posted it in another response in the thread but https://github.com/HerMajestyDrMona/Windows11DragAndDropToTaskbarFix has existed for ages now and it's a completely seamless fix save for a minor visual issue. If MS wanted to, they could have just baked in this fix with an update months ago. They hide behind the rewrite, but plain and simple a seamless 3rd party fix has been around for ages, MS could have done it in a week tops if they wanted to, likely an afternoon or, once again, just use the fix directly and bake it into the next update. There is no non-intentional reason for it still not being implemented.

There is a fix for that: https://github.com/HerMajestyDrMona/Windows11DragAndDropToTaskbarFix

You'll need 3rd party help. Drag & Drop, (free) https://github.com/HerMajestyDrMona/Windows11DragAndDropToTaskbarFix, Windows says they're bringing it back in a future feature update, until then there's this fix.

WSLg(Windows Subsystem for Linux GUI) uses RDP and FreeRDP to work: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm hopeful the experience is better than last time I tried Hyper-V enhanced linux experience. I imagine this use case is getting FreeRDP way more attention.

For years I've developed in a Linux VM on a Windows host via VirtualBox. The typing lag on this, particularly in IDEs like VSCode and Rider, finally got to me. So, I moved over to WSL and have to say; the experience is amazing.

This is running in WSL?

Microsoft has some wayland stuff already for WSL, though I think internally there's RDP involved: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

That said. Graphical apps will just run on WSL without needing to install anything. Check: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

What are you talking about? Its free forever https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

Actually, you can https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

See: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/issues/563 and other similar issues on wslg GitHub.

Apparently, WSLg does away with the need for a separate X server, making things "easy" to use:

There's two completely different aspects to your question. 1) How to manage libraries in c++ without dying from cringe? I'd suggest you use cmake as the build system and grab library sources directly from GitHub using this tool: https://github.com/cpm-cmake/CPM.cmake 2) How to get apps that run under WSL to display windows-native windows? I'm not sure, but it's probably this: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

Here’s a thread about it. You can get into the underlying RDP session instead of just apps launching. https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/issues/1019
