CompTIA DataSys+ (DS0-001) — Question 16

Which of the following tools is used for natively running a Linux system in Windows?

Answer options

• A. WSL
• B. Remote Desktop Protocol
• C. SSH
• D. Telnet

Correct answer: A

Explanation

WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) is specifically designed to enable users to run a Linux distribution directly on Windows. The other options, such as Remote Desktop Protocol, SSH, and Telnet, are used for remote access and communication but do not provide the ability to natively run a Linux system within Windows.
