Hey Chris, after a fresh install I wanted to see how other people install WSL and I came upon your blog entry here. Well done and thanks! I would suggest to place the mentioned Kernel Update (https://aka.ms/wsl2kernel) right after installing the VirtualMachinePlatform, in doing so I was able to skip the entire trouble shooting paragraph on a new Win10 install. Also you can add Ubuntu 22.04 to the list of all available distributions as well. To avoid the Windows Store entirely I suggest using wsl -l -o to get a list of all available distros right in your PowerShell. Pick one you like and use wsl --install -d <Distribution> and you are done :-)
