OS : windows 10 , Version 21H1 (19043.928), cpu base x64.

When i execute ‘wsl --install’ ， got this error: 

'WSL' is not an internal or external command, nor is it a runnable program

According document, system env path should have wsl, but apparently don't have. I don't understand from here .

Then i found this in Trubleshooting：

The term 'wsl' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Ensure that the Windows Subsystem for Linux Optional Component is installed. Additionally, if you are using an ARM64 device and running this command from PowerShell, you will receive this error. Instead run wsl.exe from PowerShell Core, or Command Prompt.

According this i execute step3 ~ step 5 from https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-manual#step-3---enable-virtual-machine-feature, and enable ' Windows Subsystem for Linux' in Windows. But step5 , after i execute wsl --set-default-version 2 , i got this : about WSL 2‘s main infomation, please visit https://aka.ms/wsl2

Then I back to install wsl using wsl --install, I got the help list . Then i try wsl --list --online, still got the help list. I don't know where i missed , i am a newer in wsl.
