Windows tools

File copy

Use winscp (from https://winscp.net/eng/download.php?TB_iframe) to move files to and from the raspberry pi.

- or use the Samba share explained earlier.

Terminal access

Use putty (from https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html) to get terminal access to the raspberry.

To connect to raspberry using a cable (from raspberry direct to a PC) requires that both has a manually set IP adress. The Raspberry side is 192.168.0.2, and you should probably manually set the IP of your PC to the same local net, e.g. 192.168.0.100.

In Putty

Graphical applications from Windows

Linux uses X or (X-display) for graphical applications.

When you start an application from an ssh connection (using Putty), then it works fine if it is a terminal (text-based) application, but not for graphics.
