According to the discussion in #10754 I tried turning off the Hyper-V features and it still didn't work. I tried turning off Hyperviser Platform as well and reinstalling and still go tthe same error code: PS path> wsl --install

I tried turning the Virtual Machine Platform off and on again in Windows Features, also turned off WSL because on a fresh computer it seems enabling that option isn't required now that WSL is distributed in the Microsoft store. Still isn't working but I will try uninstalling and reinstalling after another reboot. |
|
Still not working, can't get any distro to work. Always get: WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x8007000d
Error: 0x8007000d The data is invalid.I am afraid I might need to reinstall windows or something catastrophic. |

Sorry about the late reply. I fixed my notification settings so it won't happen again. Please reopen the issue. |

Thank you @ivanthewebber: Unfortunately you're hitting a hyper-V issue because your Windows build is too old. The only solution to resolve this would be to update to a newer Windows build. |
|
@OneBlue, this is a company-managed device that is consistently updated running Microsoft Windows 11 Enterprise Insider Preview. Are you sure that is the problem and there is not a data inconsistency (e.g. WSL cached the version when first installed a few years ago and I failed to uninstall it entirely before reinstalling)? |
|
Please reopen this issue, I am running the newest available build. |
Try installing latest WSL from here: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/releases/ Fix found here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/wsl2-not-working-wslregisterdistribution-failed/f6a82483-bad8-49aa-8b7e-ed891eca029e |

Are you using WSL 1 or WSL 2?
Kernel Version
5.15.133.1-1
Distro Version
N/A
Other Software
WSL is not working, so Docker is not working. Docker is not working so Apache Spark and Apache Flink are not working.
Repro Steps
Had WSL. Got windows update and had a problem with Apache Spark that I traced back to Docker. Docker gave me an error about WSL.
Tried opening WSL and it gave me an error about data being invalid. I looked online and it seemed that uninstalling and reinstalling WSL would fix the problem. I followed recommended steps here to initially uninstall before finding Microsoft documentation. I uninstalled WSL and attempted to install it from the store. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it several times using the command line trying to make sure all settings and features were right, and I restarted between everything. Have not been able to avoid getting the same error:
I tried other distributions and at this point I am pretty stumped. I saw this possibly related issue, but I can't change my computer's system clock.
Expected Behavior
wsl --installwould succeed and afterwardswslwould open Ubuntu's shell.Actual Behavior
Error code: 0x8007000d
The output varies slightly if I change turn the Windows features on or off, but I always end up getting the same error code.
Output of Ubuntu:
