My goto terminal emulator on Windows. Without a doubt, Moba is what SSH on windows has been missing.

  Agreed. Been using it for several years!

  Why not use Windows Terminal (which comes with Windows) and WSL/Ubuntu with OpenSSH (from the app store)?

    Moba supports bookmarks and SFTP among other features

      OpenSSH also supports "bookmarks" (ssh_config) and sftp.

        yeah but you have to edit yucky text files. this is a huge "ew nope" to windows users.

    It has an X server built in, which has come in extremely handy. Yes, there are other X servers for Windows, but with mobaxterm I don't need to faff about configuring it, and it's a nice terminal otherwise, so when I realize I do need to pop open a graphical program on a server, I can just do it with the terminal I'm already using. The drag-and-drop file transfers are also great. Yes, you can get a lot of this stuff with WSL, but my work laptop doesn't play nicely with WSL at all (some interaction with the antivirus reliably BSODs).

    One thing I cannot for the life of me authoritatively, confidently understand is whether WSL2 requires a Type 1 hypervisor running under baseline/parent Windows OS. It appears that it does, and that is just a massive deal-breaker for most of my PCs :(

      Are you suffering from DRM, or how does this turn into a widespread deal breaker for you?
