WSL 2 not working after installing 20262
Just getting involved with Insider Preview...upgraded 2019 Datacenter (latest official release) to 20262. After the upgrade, downloaded and ran the Linux Kernel update package. When running WSL comma...
Do you mean WSL1 or WSL2 here? WSL2 didn't exist at the time of Windows Server 2019, so that can't be the rationale, and WSL1 is present in the Windows Server LTSC 2022 Insider builds, right now.
Are you suggesting that WSL will be completely pulled (i.e. WSL1 as well) from Windows Server LTSC 2022 before release?
It seems odd that we would get WSL1 but not WSL2 in Windows Server LTSC 2022, since AFAIK all development effects and new features have been focussed on WSL2 for the last year or two.

I agree.
We do have a need of WSL2 on Server2022. IE a server with GUI and WSL2 and a decent support lifecycle

WSL2 will be broadly available in the June cumulative update, for those looking to get it sooner it is available today by installing the 5C update here: https://support.microsoft.com/help/5014021
