    Windows Subsystem for Linux - Installed Distributions Missing

    Device type: Laptop

    Model: Lenovo ThinkPad W530

    OS: Windows 10 Education

    Verison: 1803 Build 17134.48

    After the 1803 Spring Creators Update was applied on my machine, my Ubuntu 16.04 app no longer worked. It produced the error message:

    "Windows Subsystem for Linux has no installed distributions.

    Distributions can be installed by visiting the Microsoft Store:

    https://aka.ms/wslstore"

    I learned this was because my Ubuntu 16.04 install was no longer the default distribution. Using the wslconfig program, I was able to list all distributions and see my Ubuntu install. I set it back to the default and running 'wsl' would work as expected.

    However starting today, running the 'wsl' command produces the same error as before. Now there are *no* distributions when I list my installed distributions using 'wslconfig /l'. It seems like my Ubuntu install gone completely now.

    1) Are there any other ways of checking if the files within my Ubuntu install are still on my device?

    2) Why would a distribution silently be removed, is it an error or the result of some policy(eg. since Ubuntu 18.04 was released)?

    Facing with 'Something happened on our end. Here’s the error code, in case you need it: 0x87E10BC6' for launching Ubuntu in WSL

    Hi,

    I faced with 'Something happened on our end. Here’s the error code, in case you need it: 0x87E10BC6' error after the WSL(Windows Subsystem for Linux) is installed and Ubuntu or any other Linux distribution should be installed and launched. I uninstalled and reinstalled WSL but it did not help. Please help me with this if you have any ideas. Thanks in advance...
