Windows 10: Windows 11 dying from WSA and WSL

Hello, For some strange reason when i try to use WSA or WSL on windows 10 and 11, it will make windows bluescreen constantly. it will be working fine for about 2 minutessometimes less and then will bluescreen with different errors every time.. I've narrowed it down to WSA and WSL, be it both at once or one at a time I don't know why it does this and it's getting annoying..

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.

 

WSL

Version 2 of WSL uses a new lightweight utility virtual machine capability. To enable the lightweight virtual machine and WSL, you need to enable two Windows features: Virtual Machine Platform and Windows Subsystem for Linux.

To enable these features via the user interface (UI), press the Windows key and enter Windows Features, then click on Turn Windows features on or off.
When the Windows Features dialog appears, check the boxes for Virtual Machine Platform and Windows Subsystem for Linux.




If you want to make version 2 the default for any Linux distros you install then run the following command:


Code:

Now you can install Linux distro from Microsoft Store it will be running version 2 of WSL.

A distro can be converted between versions of WSL after installation. To achieve this, you use the wsl --set-version command.

This command takes two arguments:

• The name of the distro to update
• The version to convert it to

An example of converting the Ubuntu distro to version 2 is shown here:

Code:

Execute wsl --list --verbose versions of WSL installed distro.

 

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.
