Importing a fastq file

Question

[oumo]

Hello, how do I import a fastq file from my local windows computer into fluent terminal wls

Can you explain better what you mean? If I understand correctly, your fastq file must be in the Ubuntu home folder of your wsl to be able to analyze it from the terminal

[ATpoint]

Windows is mounted as /mnt/c/... in WSL (at least in WSL2).

That's right.. With cp command from terminal

cp /mnt/c/path/to/your/fastq/file.fastq /path/in/wsl/

The fastq file is in my local disk, and I want to upload it to Ubuntu
