Running FreeSurfer on Windows
Please see this page with updated documentation including the Windows Subsystem For Linux version 2 (WSL2) and also the previous version, WSL1.
Even if you only need to run freeview, you should still try to install the entire freesurfer distribution by using an installer package. This is because freeview links against many libraries and also needs X-windows and related packages installed on the system. If you have sudo/root permission, then you are better off letting the installer try and update your system with what freesurfer needs to run (instead of trying to manually install packages from the command line with "apt-get" on Ubuntu or "yum" on CentOS/RedHat).
