Muscle memory is causing all kinds of problems.

If I'm stuck on a windows machine, one of the first packages I try to install is git-scm.org's BASH.
It's not actually Linux, but it's got a command line and enough programs to really help get work done.
There's even a portable version if you don't have admin rights on the device
Yes it's awesome, I use it with Microsoft terminal for tabs + themes, thanks to that I still have to learn how to use powershell
Why not just go full WSL?
I used WSL for a job and it worked fine. It's kind of a weird VM that doesn't really integrate with the host OS fully, but it works for many use cases.
Git BASH has more direct system integration and hardware access than WSL, though it's been a couple of years since I had to look at WSL at all. Hopefully they've improved the integration over time.
WSL for me.
