Windows Subsystem for Linux Update - 5.10.93.2 failed to update
- Mar 25, 2022
Yup, 5.10.102.2 x86 from store worked for me
I would like to propose the following solution:
Click on this link:

Choose the correct version and then click on download. Choose the correct processor type. Download the CAB-file and extract it to get the corresponding MSI-file. Then install the MSI-file and it should be working.
You may also use the WSL --update command to check for updates afterwards.
It worked on my laptop.
Kind regards,
Kelley

Kelley1995 Well, that process seems to have changed the error, although it's not obvious that it's going to install the rest of the updates. We'll see. Thank you!
On a side note, when downloading the file Chrome gave me an error about not being able to download securely. I wonder if it's an expired cert or something. (I'm not interested enough right now to look)
