+==== Automatically Start Ubuntu WSL at Startup without Showing CMD ====
+Open **Notepad** and create a batch script with the following command:
+<code batch start_wsl.bat>
+@echo off
+wsl -d Ubuntu
+</code>
+Save the file as `start_wsl.bat` in the `C:\Windows` directory.
+Create a shortcut to the batch file.
+Right-click on the `start_wsl.bat` file, and choose **Create Shortcut**. \\
+Next, set the shortcut to run minimized:
+    - Right-click the newly created shortcut, and select **Properties**.
+    - In the **Shortcut** tab, set **Run** to **Minimized**.
+    - Click **OK** to save the settings.
+Then, move the shortcut to the Windows **Startup** folder:
+    - Press *Win + R*, and type `shell:startup`, then hit **Enter**. This opens the **Startup** folder.
+    - Move the shortcut you created into this folder.
+Now, WSL (Ubuntu) will automatically start whenever Windows boots up, without showing the CMD window.
