If I install VS code via WSL and execute it, Which Keyboard (Ubuntu VS code or Windows VS Code) shortcuts will work in it ?

WSL in windows Store

Actually, this is a consumer-oriented forum for general Windows 10 questions.

As WSL concerns mostly developers and Enterprise, I suggest asking there.

 

Recovering Debian WSL after restting PC

Hi stéphane70,

Thank you for sharing a few details about yout concern. To get your Debian WSL
installed on your Windows 10, I recommend the steps suggested on this article. You might also want to check the
distros available after the installation for your reference. If you still get the same error
message, I advise that you perform a clean boot first and seek if the issue still re-occurs. There might
be a program that is preventing your WSL to be installed. However, if you still get the same issue, then the next steps is
creating a new user profile and naming it as
test. By doing so, we'd be able to eliminate the possibility of a certain setting hindering the installation.

I'll be waiting for the results and your response to assist you for there.

 

Resolving WslRegisterDistribution error 0x80370102 when installing Linux Distro for WSL 2?

# Encountering WslRegisterDistribution error 0x80370102 when installing Linux Distro for WSL 2

I am currently on the `Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview build 18922.rs_prerelease`, and am trying to install a Linux distribution to access via Windows Subsystem for Linux (2). I have tried this for both the Ubuntu and Debian distros and have encountered the
same error in each.

I have successfully downloaded both distros from the Microsoft store, but when I try to first "run" the Ubuntu or Debian "app" the respective console comes up and prints the following text:

Code:

Installing, this may take a few minutes...

WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80370102

Error: 0x80370102 The virtual machine could not be started because a required feature is not installed.

Press any key to continue...
Pressing a key at this point automatically exits the console.

## Additional information:

- Using the `wsl -l` command shows no installed distros.

- I do have Hypervisor installed and running `bcdedit` does show that `hypervisorlaunchtype` is set to `Auto` in the `Windows Boot Loader` section.

- I did previously have Ubuntu installed and working under WSL 1 before switching to the Windows Insider Program Fast Ring and gaining access to WSL 2, but I was encountering another issue when trying to have it use WSL 2. After
trying to use the command `wsl --set-version Ubuntu 2` I was met with a request to "Enable the Virtual Machine Platform". I had already run `Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName VirtualMachinePlatform` prior, according to the official microsoft
tutorial here Install WSL 2, but for good measure I did it again and got the same error, and Ubuntu was still on version 1 (I haven't explicitly mentioned it but I was restarting/shutting down when requested/suggested
by windows and tutorials, so I don't believe me not restarting is a cause). In hopes to find a workaround, I ended up uninstalling Ubuntu and hoping I could reinstall it and have it obey the default defined by the `wsl --set-default-version 2` command (suffice
it to say, this did not go as I'd hoped).

- This might be an unrelated issue, but when I initially attempted reinstalling Ubuntu, the Microsoft store had a bit of a fit and could not complete the download- encountering an 'unknown error'. I did a restart, tried again, and
got the same error, but then after telling it to 'try again' it succeeded. I had no such issues installing Debian from the store.

## Suggestions Welcome

I've searched for a bit and can't find mention of this error code in particular anywhere else.

In addition, is there anywhere I can look up/access these error codes in any sort of documentation? Ideally so I can make a better informed work-around attempt before bothering you all on here.

All help is appreciated!
