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.
