WSL 2 not working after installing 20262
LubomirH WSL was only available in the Semi-Annual Channel releases, not Windows Server LTSC. What may be confusing is that there was an 1809 version of both SAC and LTSC - they were released at the same time.
I see, but there wasn't any new LTSC version of server released since WS2019 (1809), so it is clear that WSL2 was released only in the SAC.
AFAIK the WS2022 is being developed in the same cycle as the Windows 10 and Windows Server 21H2.
If that is true, there is quite a big chance WSL2 will be part of the WS2022, when released.
Well, unless the product team decides to remove it, not include it or simply not support it.
If nothing goes wrong the WS2022 will be here in few months, so there isn't much time left for the decision to be made.
When it will be announced what will be part of the LTSC and what will be deprecated?
thanks

IMHO it could be technically possible to release a patch of the Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP-Component, where AFAIK the timebomb lives, specifically for this build, but don't put much hope on MS doing it.
To be honest I would be happier if they would rather fix it for the builds coming. - tbertenshawFeb 14, 2021Copper Contributor
@Mary Hoffman Is it possible to extend the life of the last WSL2 release (20241) until it returns to the releases?
Really need WSL2 and really don't want to revert to windows 10.
