Is there a way to access a Windows Container via GUI?

Hi there,

Most of the Windows image supports docker. To run a container, you first install a base image, which provides a foundational layer of operating system services to your container. Then you create and run a container image, which is based upon the base image.

Container Base Images https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/manage-containers/container-base-images

Get started: Run your first Windows container https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/quick-start/run-your-first-container

We can run any application in Docker as long as it can be installed and executed unattended, although we can not see the GUI.
