WSL 2 is a new version of the architecture in WSL that changes how Linux distributions interact with Windows. WSL 2 has the primary goals of increasing file system performance and adding full system call compatibility. Each Linux distribution can run as WSL 1 or a WSL 2 and can be switched between at any time. WSL 2 is a major overhaul of the underlying architecture and uses virtualization technology and a Linux kernel to enable its new features.

WSL 2 is only available in Windows 10, Version 2004, Build 19041 or higher. You will need to [update your Windows version](ms-settings:windowsupdate) and [join the Windows Insider program](https://insider.windows.com/insidersigninboth/) on the "Release Preview" ring until the public release in late May.
