    Can NOT install Linux from Windows store!

    I am currently using Windows 1803[17134.81] and I can NOT install Windows from Store! Whenever I run the powershell command to turn "Windows sub-system for Linux" on, the machine takes a reboot and then "Working on Updates We couldn't apply the updates"
    then another restart and then 'undoing changes' kinda thing. HOW TO ENABLE LINUX INSTALLATION FROM STORE?!

    *Steps followed so far---

    1. Re-installed Windows, 100% clean. Still nothing.
    2. Created another user account, no help.
    3. Deleted theme, reset Windows Store, and store cache too. NO HELP!

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
