WSL notes
Install
Requires
- windows 10 22h2 build x.2311 or later
- Intel VT-x or AMD-V virtualization support
- 64-bit processor
Intall WSL2
If you can't run wsl --version in cmd, you need to install WSL2.
- Open cmd and run 'wsl --update'
if you have wsl2, but you doesn't have access to the windows store (error 0x8024500c), you can install it with:
cmd
wsl --update --web-downloador with windows update:
If your organization has set it, the "Receive updates for other Microsoft products when you update Windows" option (In the Settings -> Windows Update -> Advanced settings) will automatically obtain the latest WSL2 kernel release when it is available.
I'm assuming that you don't have access to change this setting yourself, if your user permissions don't include the Store. It's typically an IT-managed setting.
Set version
cmd
wsl --set-version <distro> 2
