Here are a list of X Windows servers for Windows
X2Go (requires server to be in place at connection target, in place for GreenPlanet and OIT HPC aka RCIC)
- https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php
- https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:installation:x2goclient
Note: X2Go is great for overcoming platform specific bugs like requiring certain versions of XQuartz for a given app on macOS
MobaXterm (which works great and doesn’t specically require a server component)
- https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download.html
- https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download-home-edition.html (select Installer edition)
Note: works great for accessing CentOS/Ubuntu, but haven’t fully tested this personally to access X apps on macOS
Cygwin
- https://x.cygwin.com/
Note: mileage varies depending on the repo (i.e., if it’s not up to date).
XMing X Server
