Trim Galore Anaconda

Hi, I am new to using the Linux terminal in Windows and I tried to install the Trim Galore package using Anaconda3 but keep getting this error:

(base) skhadka@DESKTOP-92U9DF6:~$ conda install -c bioconda trim-galore

Has anyone resolved this issue or will help me with it? Thanks in advance!!

Rather than installing in base create another environment for trim-galore.

conda create -n trimgalore_env -c bioconda -c conda-forge -c anacond trim-galore

You need to install WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). The linux terminal in windows is not a true linux distributable and you cannot install linux programs with it.

Hi Trivas, I have installed Windows Subsystem for Linux. I tried installing other packages (like fastqc) and it worked fine for that. But I am having trouble with this one. Do you have any idea about that?
