  1. Remove Ubuntu 14.04 from my Wsl 2


    Hi!:

    I recently upgraded my Win10 version from 1909 to 2004 and along with it installed Ubuntu 20.04 on Wsl. In the previous version I had Ubuntu 14.04 installed. I don't need both. How do I remove the latter? Thanks for the help.

    :)

  3. Cannot install WSL distributions though microsoft store, only ubuntu

    I have been trying to install Ubuntu 18.04 and Debian through the windows store, the only button available is "Get", but pressing it does nothing.

    I have enabled/disabled WSL a few times and rebooted.

    I previous had WSL preview, and then ubuntu 16.04 installed via the app store. Both are completely removed.

  4. Remove Ubuntu 14.04 from my Wsl 2

    Ubuntu Linux on WSL will not use Internet

    I have asked for the last 3 weeks for help from Ubuntu for the Ubuntu app in the store. My desktop has no issues using the Internet no matter where I go. However, for the last approximately 4 weeks the Ubuntu WSL will not access the Internet at
    all. Using apt-get update/upgrade, wget, curl, anything simply comes back as "Unable to access <whatever> site. Please try later." I have checked hosts, host.allow, host.deny, all are empty except for the normal comments. I have deleted/reinstalled
    Ubuntu, deleted/turned off WSL/rebooted/used disk cleanup/turned on WSL/rebooted/reinstalled Ubuntu and nothing helps. Please, someone help me with this issue before I delete windows entirely and set it up as SUSE or Fedora only. Thank you
    for any help/clues you can give me because Canonical doesn't seem to care.
