Linux kernel version 5.10.74.3 is not in the update list, here https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=wsl

You can get that version with a little cheating 😉 Download the msixbundle file from here https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/releases. Extract the msix file from it using 7zip like tools. There will be a kernel file in it.
