Hello,

I was directed here with my concerns. Please view the ticket on answers.microsoft.com while I gather more data. I need any help available. I erased WSL2 and WSL totally but lost all data. Okay, no issue. I can get the data back.

The issue is that I can no longer handle the install after installing WSL2 of a Debian Distro Instance.

Seth

P.S. Please let me know what you think while I transfer data from the post at answers.microsoft.com and get things arranged.

    after going into administrative access under terminal, I typed wsl --install Debian and this is the output.

    wsl --install Debian

    Debian GNU/Linux is already installed.

    Launching Debian GNU/Linux...

    Installing, this may take a few minutes...

    WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80072746

    Error: 0x80072746 An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

    Press any key to continue...

    The operation completed successfully.

    Then, when I open Debian after the install, the output is this:

    Installing, this may take a few minutes...

    WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80072749

    Error: 0x80072749 A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected and (when sending on a datagram socket using a sendto call) no address was supplied.

    Press any key to continue...

    So, after I press any key to continue, the terminal Window closes and Debian is gone.

    Seth

    P.S. Please send guidance and advise me when you have time.
