Screenshot shows compress to, but text explains it is also decompression. I was downloading OPNsense today, to upload it to my Proxmox install. Couldn't bunzip2 the ISO file on Windows 10, and it would not accept an upload of iso.bz2. I guess I have to fix the WSL install, but in this case I ended up using curl on a Linux machine.

Do the cygwin binaries not work any more? i have a folder of exe files for common linux tools i drop into windows/system32 on a new install

  For myself I wouldn't use Cygwin binaries in the way you describe, will prefer doing things in WSL instead. YMMV of course, just saying my prefs.

  You could also use https://cosmo.zip/ https://cosmo.zip/ ex https://cosmo.zip/pub/cosmos/bin/bzip2 https://cosmo.zip/pub/cosmos/bin/bzip2 should work on Windows. Or you could just grab cosmos-3.3.1.zip from https://justine.lol/cosmo3/ https://justine.lol/cosmo3/ and have approximately a whole posix-ish environment that works on most modern OSs.
