To make Windows 10 easier, having the machine as up-to-date as possible will help - as of the time of writing this, November 2022 patches. We recommend using Windows 11 as it is simpler, however if you are using Window 10 it is still possible but requires additional steps in places. WSL 1 uses a “translation layer” which is similar to WINE. This is because WSL 2 uses the actual Linux kernel inside a Hyper-V virtual machine (managed by WSL). WSL 2 is the preferred and default option when installing WSL. Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) has two different versions, “WSL 1” and “WSL 2”. ![]()
