Install Gromacs on window with WSL

Step 1: Install WSL

For window 10 or lower: Search "Turn Windows Features on or off" in your windows Check "Windows Subsystem for linux". >> go to window store and search "Ubuntu" and download it

For window 11: win+R and type-in "cmd" >> type-in "wsl --install" >> restart the computer.

Step 2: Pre-setup

Install the Microsoft Visual Studio first if your computer doesn't have.

Open Ubuntu, and execute the codes below (one line by one line)

sudo apt update

sudo apt-get upgrade

sudo apt-get install gcc

sudo apt-get install cmake

sudo apt-get install build-essential

sudo apt-get install libfftw3-dev

Note: they should always show "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded." After execution

!!! sudo apt-get install gromacs (if want to install old-version, but the memory will go wrong. and something don't work)

Step 3: Download the latest version ( For instance: gromacs-2022.3.tar.gz) and save it on the desktop

Install latest version: https://manual.gromacs.org/current/install-guide/index.html

Latest version download: https://manual.gromacs.org/current/download.html

Step 4-1: Find the directory for desktop

ex: cd /mnt/c/Users/"your window user's name"/Desktop/

Step 4-2: Install the gromacs

tar xfz gromacs-2022.3.tar.gz

cd gromacs-2022.3

mkdir build

cd build

cmake .. -DGMX_BUILD_OWN_FFTW=ON -DREGRESSIONTEST_DOWNLOAD=ON -DGMX_MPI=on

make

make check

sudo make install

source /usr/local/gromacs/bin/GMXRC

Notes: if the last line is failed, check the directory (open a folder and check \\wsl$\Ubuntu)

From Experience: "source /usr/local /bin/GMXRC" for windows 10 , "source /usr/local/gromacs/bin/GMXRC" for windows 11

Step 5: Done

Type in ""gmx", you can check the version information for your Gormacs.

Delete Gromacs

sudo apt-get purge gromacs

Add MPI to Gromacs 

sudo apt install gromacs-mpi

sudo apt install gromacs-openmpi
