Just run the native Windows binary of Emacs. It uses the native Windows font rendering APIs, so the text should end looking the same as it does in other Windows applications (assuming it’s the same font and size, of course). The Linux version that you’re running uses a completely different font renderer, so it will be very hard to make it match exactly.

I don’t know much about wsl but they probably want to develop on headless linux why still being able to use GUI Emacs.

That doesn’t make any sense. WSL is not a headless Linux.

It actually is, you can’t run a desktop enviroment with it for example but it does let you open linux gui apps to be used from windows.
