Hello
Does anyone know if there are some possibility to start remote windows software so only local window appears like one can do with linux ssh -X command?
I have a virtual Windows 7 machine under Virtualbox, and want to start the machine in background and run software that can’t be run under wine in window.
Why I want it : To be able to switch windows from that software (Trionic Suite5) to other with Alt-TAB
My system is oS Leap 42.2 KDE/Plasma

First,
It’s possible to install SSH in Windows, and add an X server so you can “ssh -X” into a Windows box…
https://winscp.net/eng/docs/guide_windows_openssh_server
http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes/
And, VNC is a popular cross-platform solution that does much of the same thing.
But,
SSH is not a “natural service” and x server is an add-on just to provide remote graphical console capability. Most people instead prefer to utilize Windows native remote graphical support using other protocols and clients…
Like Remote Desktop Services

Nope. Windows doesn’t separate window display functionality the way X
does. Your best bet is an RDP solution.

You may find virtualBox seamless mode might satisfy your needs.
Make sure you have VirtualBox Guest Editions installed in guest, run application in virtual box, hit right-CTRL + L (default setting) and voila!

Thanks! Havn’t manage to get openssh to work, and just started to look into xming and for the moment not up and running.
Cool, thanks that was something new and looks nice. But I can’t Alt+Tab between Win application and openSUSE apps.
That seems to be the situation here 
Thanks for giving me that insight.
