x11 apps wont run under Windows SSH server

Question

I have an SSH server configured on Windows and whenever I connect to it and issue notepad, the program does not open:

I tried both -X and -Y flags when using SSH, both on the server host system [Windows] and Linux

X11 is not supported and IIRC isn't planned to be supported (I believe there's something on the OpenSSH-WIin32 GitHub, but you'll need to search the Wiki and Issues pages) — JW0914, Oct 10 '20 at 12:20
If you want to access windows apps from a remote system, you should look at remote desktop or VNC. — Kenster, Oct 10 '20 at 13:32

Notepad is not an X11 app. Overall, the Windows graphics system is not X11-based at all.
