No response

Repro Steps

Any wsl command besides --version generates this error. I can't unregister, install, or do anything else with it.

I've tried sc config LxssManager start=auto and ensuring it's running I've also ensured vmcompute is set to auto and is running

The only hint I have is that I noticed that after a reboot or two LxssManager has been reset to Manual and was off again. It seems something in the update is resetting that - perhaps it's part of the issue.

Expected Behavior

wsl should run. I had been running it for months and changed nothing except applied the latest update.

Actual Behavior

(base) PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> wsl The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. Error code: Wsl/0x80070422

The logs show that wslservice is disabled. Try to run (elevated command prompt): sc.exe config wslservice start= demand and see if that solves the issue

Diagnostic information ``` Detected appx version: 2.3.24.0 Detected user visible error: Wsl/0x80070422 ```

That command did work, and I was able to run wsl afterwards. However, when I rebooted, the WSL Service had returned to Disabled again. Something appears to be re-disabling the service each reboot.
