+Installation of Ubuntu Linux on Windows 10
+===== PART 1 - Installing Linux on Windows 10  =====
+Open PowerShell as administrator and type the following
+**Enable‐WindowsOptionalFeature ‐Online ‐FeatureName Microsoft‐Windows‐Subsystem‐Linux **
+Reboot once prompted to do so
+Next, if you’re on build 1625 or later, you can just use the link below to get the installer for Ubuntu,
+it will open in the Windows Store
+[[https://www.microsoft.com/store/p/ubuntu/9nblggh4msv6|Windows Store Ubuntu Link]]
+Once downloaded, you can click the Launch button in the store, you should now also add this your desktop/start menu/taskbar for easy access
+===== PART 2 - Getting it all up and running =====
+Once you have followed the PART 1 guide to install WSL and Ubuntu, do a complete reboot of your computer before going any further.
+Now that you are up and running with Linux, you will need to install the following applications to enable everything to work with “**Deejayeye-Modder**” patching application.
+Run the following commands from a "Bash Shell" one at a time:
+**sudo apt‐get update && sudo apt‐get upgrade **
+(//Run this straight after build and it will pull down any updates)// **then reboot again**.
+Then proceed to install the other elements you are going to need?
+  * sudo apt-get **install build-essential**
+  * sudo apt-get **install dos2unix**
+  * sudo apt-get **install bspatch**
+  * sudo apt-get **install default-jre**      //(or jdk – I only do jre)//
+  * sudo apt-get **install webp**
+  * sudo apt-get **install imagemagick**
+  * sudo apt-get **install dialog**
+  * sudo apt-get **install python**
+  * sudo apt-get **install xmlstartlet**
+Or, you can just run this
+**sudo apt‐get install build‐essential dos2unix bspatch default‐jre webp imagemagick dialog python
+xmlstarlet **
+You probably know that **Sudo** is just escalating permissions to admin level.
+If you get an issue with “Sudo”, run the command: **sudo passwd root** and follow onscreen prompts, this will allow you to set a new Sudo password.
+Once you have installed all the above //(should only take a few mins)//, you will now want to play with the patch system.
+Here is what I did. Having downloaded the latest version of “Deejayeye-Modder” from Github, and decompressed the file,  I then copied the whole of the “Deejayeye-Modder” directory to my C:\ Drive.
+so I end up with **C:\Deejayeye-modder**
+**NOTE: Capitalisation is extremely important in linux, so match the upper and/or lower case letters in the commands and directory/filenames.
+**
+In WSL you access your C: drive with the following command, and in particular the Mod directory:
+   cd /mnt/c/deejayeye-modder
+List the contents by issuing the command “**ls**”
+To make sure the file “RunMe.sh” is executable, run  “**chmod 755 RunMe.sh**”  //(You won’t see anything)//
+To execute the command, precede it with **./	**so becomes **./RunMe.sh**
+**Other useful commands:**
+  * cd ~	Returns you to your home directory
+  * cd ..	Drops you back one directory at a time
+  * help	Usual screen full of useful information
+  * exit	Shuts down box and gives you back Windows
+  * mkdir       make dir
+  * rmdir	remove dir
+Everything else….. Google’s your friend.  Some interesting articles out there on using Linux.
+And if you are interested in taking the WSL system even further, you can add a GUI front end to it, and run many more useful applications..... Get to know Linux ..... You'll love it.
