  1. [Windows]
  2. Voodoo-Kali - Kali Linux Desktop on Windows 10
  3.  
  4. How it works ?
  5. * Kali Linux with XFCE Desktop Environment in Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)
  6. * VcXsrv X Server for Windows is doing the hard GUI lifting
  7. * XFCE is started natively in WSL and displayed by VcXsrv
  8.  
  9. Install Voodoo-Kali:
  10. 1, Enable WSL and install Kali Linux from the Microsoft Store. Read Install Kali Linux desktop on Windows 10 from Microsoft Store: http://bit.ly/2FS5yJU
  11.  
  12. 2, To start Kali Linux in Windows 10, open Command Prompt and enter command: kali
  13.  
  14. 3, Enter this commands:
  15. apt install wget -y
  16. wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Re4son/WSL-Kali-X/master/install-WSL-Kali-X
  17. bash ./install-WSL-Kali-X
  18.  
  19. 4, Download and install VcXsrv X Server from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/vcxsrv/
  20.  
  21. 5, Start VcXsrv, accept change in firewall rules, exit VcXsrv
  22.  
  23. Run Voodoo-Kali:
  24. Start kali in Windows as normal user (that’s default), and launch Voodoo-Kali:
  25. * as normal user: /start-xfce
  26.  
  27. * as root: sudo /root/xtart-xfce
  28.  
  29. Run Kali Desktop in an RDP session:
  30. In Kali Linux WSL, type: sudo /etc/init.d/xrdp start
  31. In Windows 10, open Run and enter mstsc.exe and connect to “127.0.0.1:3390”
  32.  
  33. Status: Voodoo-Kali is in it’s infancy and it is far from being elegant. I’m working on it though and step by step I’ll push out improvements. Below a snippet of the To-Do list:
  34. * Clean up and comment the scripts
  35. * Make for a cleaner exit
  36. * Better error handling and dependency checking (get rid of sleeps, etc.)
  37. * Improve stability of java programs
  38. * Improve the looks??
  39. * …
  40.  
  41. Any help is truly appreciated, in any shape or form – from tips to pull requests.
  42. Why don’t you join the forums to discuss?
