Immediate update : If you use VcXserv, you need to start it with all default option, and generate a config file. Then change in the file wgl to False. Restart computer (yes) And start VcXserv with the modified config. If you simply deactivate native openGl via the gui nothing is working anymore

The performance are massively improved in WSL2 versus WSL1, so maybe it's why you had bad memory of it ? WSL2 is currently only available in insider fast ring, but will be for everyone with next major update (v2004) in few weeks. The main problem is, while you can use the right toolbar by simply

Hi Folks, Quick note on "Like a super raw image diet-plan for the incoming summer” - the bslz4 compression used with Eiger works really well, and the data are pretty close to entropy limit in terms of size - which means if you measure your data carefully (i.e. low background etc.) you can
