+When attempting to connect to Chrome running on a host machine from within a virtual machine (VM), Chrome may reject the connection due to 'Host' header validation. You can bypass this restriction by creating an SSH tunnel from the VM to the host. In the VM, run:

+
+### WSL
+
+By default, `chrome-devtools-mcp` in WSL requires Chrome to be installed within the Linux environment. While it normally attempts to launch Chrome on the Windows side, this currently fails due to a [known WSL issue](https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/14201). Ensure you are using a [Linux distribution compatible with Chrome](https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/7100626).
+
+Possible workarounds include:
+
+- **Install Google Chrome in WSL:**
+  - `wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb`
+  - `sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb`
+
+- **Use Mirrored networking:**
+  1. Configure [Mirrored networking for WSL](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/networking).
+  2. Start Chrome on the Windows side with:
+     `chrome.exe --remote-debugging-port=9222 --user-data-dir=C:\path\to\dir`
+  3. Start `chrome-devtools-mcp` with:
+     `npx chrome-devtools-mcp --browser-url http://127.0.0.1:9222`
+
+- **Use Powershell or Git Bash** instead of WSL.
