Have you tried looking thru the application logs or starting the desktop
session with "startx" console. This way you'll get some text that may
give a hint on why doesn't synaptic start.

To access a console you simply type "ALT+Fx". Possibly that the 2nd one
is already used so doing Alt+F4 shall do it.
After simply log on with username and password.
Type "startx" in the shell.
You'll see a bunch of text and a graphic screen start.
Do ALT+F4
Look at the last line of text
Go back to your graphic screen (depending on how your system is
configured, it shall be that last screen so use ALT+Fx going up to it).
Click to start synaptic
Go back to console #4 (Alt+F4)
See if there's new text on screen....
You can also do a dmesg from a xterm and see if there's something added...

It's hard for anyone to understand what bugs you may have if you don't
give us more information or give us a way to reproduce it somehow
(without resorting to installing Windows)...

Did I understand you run Debian with Linux subsystem for Windows or
something with a similar name ?
