Use local file in Windows by conda

Dear all,

I am totally new to bioinfo and wanna get some help.

I tried to follow the biostar handbook to analyse my own sequencing data. The fastq file is in my window computer and how can I access and analyse them? The example in handbook only shows how to fetch online data.

Thanks a lot!

Are you using the Windows Subsystem for Linux? If so, you can access your windows directories from it. Assuming your data is somewhere on a drive mapped to C:

cd /mnt/c
