Please fill out the below information:

  • Your Windows build number: (Type ver at a Windows Command Prompt)
    Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18999.1]

  • What you're doing and what's happening: (Copy&paste the full set of specific command-line steps necessary to reproduce the behavior, and their output. Include screen shots if that helps demonstrate the problem.)

    When I try to launch wsl, this is the output even though virtualization and WSL are enabled

Please enable the Virtual Machine Platform Windows feature and ensure virtualization is enabled in the BIOS. For information please visit https://aka.ms/wsl2-install

  • What's wrong / what should be happening instead:

  • Strace of the failing command, if applicable: (If some_command is failing, then run strace -o some_command.strace -f some_command some_args, and link the contents of some_command.strace in a gist here).

  • For WSL launch issues, please collect detailed logs.

See our contributing instructions for assistance.

@amalshaji - We do not backport fixes to previous Windows Insider builds. Glad this is working for you now.

@nk521 If possible do a clean install of Windows, not from the backup or snapshot.
