NVTOP is like htop but for your graphics module . In this short tutorial I will share how to install nvtop in wsl debian

OS used :

cat /etc/os-release

1. Verify your graphics driver In my case I have nvidida graphics

nvidia-smi

It should display details about your graphics , if not first install it

2. Edit your debian source list to include non-free releases

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

2. Modify the source list and add following
