    wsl installation nightmare

    Hello. wsl is commandline perfered. I do not think it has a GUI. The issue maybe that windows terminal is crashing or powershell. For wsl use the command line Win+R C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

    cmd.exe wsl

    wsl --list --online

    wsl --install -d Ubuntu --web-download

    wsl --stats

    bash

    sudo apt install blahblah

    exit

    exit

    Usally you can just go in the MSstore and click install on Ubuntu ect.

    no dns required.

    Other options: Viurtal box Or use a live USB Ubunti.iso but dont install.
