@DanNielsen Here's what I had to do to get it up and running:

1- Have Xming installed and running on Windows.

2- Have the latest openfoam6 package installed, along with the respective package from Windows.

3- Run the following command before running paraFoam or paraview:

    export DISPLAY=:0

This is already documented at https://openfoam.org/download/windows-10/ - section: "Enabling Graphical Applications" - which has been documented there since at least June 2017, as indicated by the Wayback machine.


The issue with:

    xlib extension mit-shm missing on display 0.

has been solved in the latest ParaView package that is provided for OpenFOAM 6 and dev, which was announced on CFD Direct's newsletter.

Closing this as solved, either by Chris or Will, I'm not sure, but am assigning it to Chris.
