Hello,

Please try these suggestions:

1. Open Services snap-in (by running services.msc command) and make restart of LxssManager service.

2. Go to Control Panel > Programs and features and click Turn Windows features On or Off. Uncheck Windows Subsystem for Linux and click OK. Reboot your computer, and check the option back. Reboot again.

3. If you're getting this issue with Kali Linux, try these steps:

• Go to C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\KaliLinux_1.1.4.0_x64 __ *
• Click kali.exe to launch it
• In the open console type:

apt-get update

apt-get dist-upgrade

apt-get upgrade

apt-get install kali-linux-all

or

apt-get install kali-linux-full

• Type exit
• Click on the magnifying glass search Kali Linux then launch it.
• Kali Linux should start normally now.

Hope this helps!
