Git >
Provides a reasonable environment for working with Git while trapped on Windows. A console window with Bash, various everyday linux console applications, and git.

I replaced it with Cygwin/Babun.

Not related to Windows Subsystem for Linux.
If you get something like:
bash: /usr/bin/program: No such file or directory
Then you've tried to run a 32 bit executable on a 64 bit distribution. You need to get 32 bit software.
Many 64-bit distributions have libraries that let you run 32-bit software. No instructions will be given here.

-
Playing on DVD-driveless devices
- (or devices where the DVD player has stopped working)
- Such as a phone or portable media player.
- e.g. a portable player for road trips.
