What are these Windows processes on Linux?

I checked in htop what is running on the system and found/saw something that I don't know what it is, Windows Desktop and explorer.exe. I'm using Ubuntu Linux and there is no Windows on this laptop.

Here is the image of the process

Output of htop, showing "C:\Windows\system32\explorer.exe /desktop" & "C:\Windows\system32\services.exe"

How can I find out what these are?

~$ ps -aux | grep "explorer.exe\|services.exe"root      3110  0.0  0.0 2645728  352 ?        Ssl  06:45   0:00 C:\windows\system32\services.exeroot      3413  0.0  0.0 2658592 1440 ?        Ssl  06:45   0:00 C:\windows\system32\explorer.exe /desktoproot     20817  0.0  0.0  14360  2408 pts/4    S+   15:20   0:00 grep --color=auto explorer.exe\|services.exe
