    Hello

    Would you please share us more details of the issue?

    When did you get this error? What is the operation you are doing?

    If the error occurred automatically, we could check the issue in clean boot.

    Or try to use the autoruns tool to check all the automatic running options. Uncheck the suspicious options then reboot to check.

    I solve the same problem.

    I just disable the virtual plantform and the WSL in the setting of windows features and delete all the virtual machine in my WSL, and try to delete my WSL. Then reboot.

    And I reinstall my WSL, and open those settings in windoes features. Reboot once again, then I can use my WSL.

    1. Open Powershell as Administrator: a) Run: dism.exe /online /disable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /norestart b) Run: dism.exe /online /disable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /norestart
    2. Restart PC
    3. Retry Install
