Did you by any chance install VMware Workstation?
That broke my WSL networking, even after uninstalling VMware. It left behind a registry key which prevented virtual network adapters from being created.
This is the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{3d09c1ca-2bcc-40b7-b9bb-3f3ec143a87b}
After removing this registry key, then clicking Network Reset
on the Networking Control Panel page, my system came back up with WSL2 able to start a virtual network again.
Maybe try a Network Reset
, and if that doesn't work, check if you have that registry key and remove it, then reboot.
To be clear: the issue is that there is that WSL is unable to create a Hyper-V virtual networking adapter for WSL to connect to the Internet with.
If you don't actually need the Internet, you can disable WSL networking by adding this to C:\Users\YourUserName.wslconfig:
[wsl2]
wsl2.networkingMode=None
I was having the same error. Have never had VMWare installed and don't have the registry key mentioned above. I had to tweak the WSL config to say the following (not quite what's written above). Obviously that leaves me without network but that's fine for my use case. I also have the 2024-09 preview installed.
[wsl2]
networkingMode=None
As a note from a Nix Wsl user. if anyone facing the same issue and want internet to work with it:
.wslconfig
in your windows userdir. (type cd ~
in powershell and enter)[wsl2]
networkingMode=mirrored
configuration.nix
:
wsl.usbip.snippetIpAddress = "127.0.0.1";
winget install usbipd
