The first problem I ran into was an error "0x8007019e", which appeared when I tried to open Ubuntu after the installation (the first time installation didn't give any error). I tried to troubleshoot it following this issue #10850. However, during troubleshooting I ran into error "Wsl/0x80080005". Then I tried to troubleshoot second error with this issue #10305, but nothing helped. Developer mode is enabled, Hardware Virtualization is enabled and there is no "Windows Subsystem for Linux" in Windows components

Thank you @Khajiit-Rakaj . Based on the error code, it looks like wslservice.exe is crashing. Can you follow 11) Reporting a WSL process crash
to capture a crash dump and share it with us ?

What a mess. Issues across the board with WSL2 right now on Windows 11 pro. After downgrading to 5.10 I was able to install Debian but not Ubuntu. One time Ubuntu got to the install with new username but froze up and never booted. Repeated attempts now throwing 0x80070040 consistently regardless.
