How to install elementary OS on WSL for Windows 10 and 11
elementary OS is a popular Linux distro not offered through the Microsoft Store, so here's how to install it on WSL. The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is an incredibly powerful tool for both Windows 10 and Windows 11 with a raft of easily installable distros at hand in the Microsoft Store. But you're not limited to only those available through the Store. With the right tools and know-how, you can get just about any distro working. In some cases, such as Ubuntu, you can install the latest rolling release with an official image. In others, we turn to the WSL community for assistance, and that's where we're at with elementary OS. Thanks to a project hosted on GitHub, installing elementary OS onto WSL is a simple process that takes a matter of minutes, followed by some pretty simple setup.
