    Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) does not support any GUI app such as gedit. It is text only interface. Try using vim or nano – user68186 Sep 08 '19 at 11:36
  • Installing an app in Ubuntu needs 2 commands. First, sudo apt update. Second, sudo apt install nano. You can use apt-get instead of apt. The apt-get is old syntax. – user68186 Sep 08 '19 at 11:44

    Please do not post images of terminal windows. It's hard to read and someone who wants to help cannot copy-paste the commands you've run. Instead, edit your post to add the text from your terminal using the appropriate code formatting. – BeastOfCaerbannog Sep 08 '19 at 11:53
