    Bash not recognize after checking windows subsystem for Linux

    Hi,

    Based on the results that you've shared, this can be due to the configuration of your device. The error message indicates that the command being utilized is not recognized by the path that is currently active. We'd recommend performing the following to allow
    Windows to recognize the command:

    • Search and launch Turn Windows features on or off.
    • Under Windows Featues, search and tick the Windows Subsystem for Linux (Beta).
    • Click on OK.
    • Follow on-screen prompts.
    • Your device will restart after completing the steps. After boot up, check if you'll still experience your concern.

    Let us know how it goes after you've performed the steps.
