The installation is not unattended #22

I installed on the Windows Server which we access via Remote Desktop. After the restart, the installation does not finish until I reconnect to the server via Remote Desktop. The installation should start and complete without anyone logging in.

In order to fix this, since WSL distributions are registered per user and not globally (https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/2979) WSL will need to work as a Windows Service first.

Ugh, this is horrible. So there's no workaround for sysadmins who'd want to install this on hundreds of servers? e.g. Does any tooling they have allow them to emulate a login to allow such things to work?

We can't do anything about this, we won't be recommending the installer for production use because of it and other issues with WSL
