If you install Docker Desktop with WSL2 checked, it automatically lets you run Nvidia-SMI in your WSL ubuntu environ on Windows:

then sudo apt install nvtop

EDIT:

Thanks, Some people were having random problems installing WSL on their systems and I found this was the easiest solution (but based on their card models, they appeared to have much older machines.

There is no need to install Docker Desktop just to run nvidia-smi in WSL; the Windows directory containing the nvidia-smi binary is mounted inside a WSL instance and added to PATH automatically by WSL on instance startup.

As an aside: there is no need to install Docker Desktop just to use Docker containers in WSL either, unless you want a Windows GUI to manage your containers. Just follow the official documentation for installing Docker in your Linux distro of choice, or simply run `sudo apt install docker.io` in the default WSL Ubuntu distro. Docker will work just fine with an up-to-date WSL.

Further aside, it's possible to have both Docker Desktop and the normal linux Docker.io installed on WSL. They work in isolation, the easy way to know which is active is to check if Docker Desktop is running or not. I wouldn't recommend this set up...
