Which remote access are you using? Have you tried https://www.kali.org/news/win-kex-version-2-0/ ? |

Keep in mind that WSL does not come with a desktop installed by default, and very few tools. So you may want to read over the documentation we have at https://kali.org/docs |

Steev... i already installed "kex version" but nothing happened. |

How are you "connecting to the GUI", as you put it? Can you give the exact steps you're running? I can't reproduce the issue here at all. |

You're misunderstanding the documentation for kex - it doesn't and can't create an option in the Windows Terminal application. You have to add those to your settings manually, or you can run "kex" or "kex --win" to run it in fullscreen/windowed mode - https://www.kali.org/docs/wsl/win-kex-win/ or run "kex --sl" to run it in "seamless" mode - https://www.kali.org/docs/wsl/win-kex-sl/ And again, if you want those options in Windows Terminal, you will need to add them yourself by choosing whichever ones you want from https://www.kali.org/docs/wsl/win-kex/ and enter them in the settings from Windows Terminal (either via selecting the Settings option from the dropdown, or using "Ctrl+," assuming you haven't changed the default keybind for it. |

As to remote access - that uses rdp, so you need to make sure to start the xrdp service (I'm assuming you have) - you may have to restart xrdp's service "sudo service xrdp restart" after having installed a desktop (or kex, which pulls one in when you "apt install kali-win-kex" unless you tell it not to install recommends) - but again, I can't reproduce the issue with xrdp as when I connect (i just use localhost:port for the connection) it loads my desktop here. |
