It needs an apostrophe then it makes more sense “Windows’ Subsystem for Linux”

It is a Windows Subsystem, that caters to running Linux.

It’s a functional title not an architectural one.



Subsystem isn't used as a random English word here, "Windows Subsystem" is already a fixed term. So you wouldn't introduce a possessive relation into the term when using it.


Indeed, I was trying to make it easier for you.


Or a colon:

    Windows Subsystem for: Linux
