    WSL Not Upgrading even when necessary features are installed


    I had installed Ubuntu 20.04 distro installed over WSL 1. Now i want to upgrade it to WSL 2. I have also installed "Virtual Machine Platform" feature also. But when i try to set default version, it shows the error "Please enable the Virtual Machine Platform Windows feature and ensure virtualization is enabled in the BIOS." I have already enable Virtualization from BIOS as well. Where am I going wrong ?
