Long before WSL there was Colinux. Back when I still dual-booted (i.e. around 2010) I used it a lot to access my Linux Filesystems from Windows, which only had a minimal partition. It booted in around 10s, much faster than a full VM and had the filesystems available via SMB-share almost as soon as Windows 7 was done lagging after login.

There was cygwin also. Thought not necessarily comparable to wsl
