Why do you go from the host to the same host with forward X? Please explain the logic of this nonsense.
Write in putty X display location localhost:0:0 and enable x11 forwarding
At first, I just connect via SSH, and then I forward Xs. But I already realized that I was wrong.
Enabled x11 forwarding, registered location; same error.
