Microsoft doesn’t want to spend any time working on graphical software, as this feature is intended for command-line developer tools. But the main technical reason that graphical applications aren’t supported is that they require an “X server” to provide that graphical interface. That “Bash on Ubuntu on Windows” environment works thanks to the underlying Windows Subsystem for Linux. This includes the exact same binaries–or applications–that would run on Ubuntu. When you run a Linux distribution like Ubuntu, it downloads and installs a complete Ubuntu user space image on your computer.
