It seems as though WSL won't install via UAC - the interactive logon session needs to be signed in directly with a user that has admin rights. Will this be fixed soon please? This also breaks using anything else to enable WSL, e.g. SCCM, PowerShell/PowerShell Direct, and probably also Intune. There's also apparently a clock sync issue in WSL. I've worked around it using chrony and the Hyper-V PTP time source, but this really needs sorting urgently (unless it has been and I've missed it!). Otherwise, WSL works really nicely 😄
