We HIGHLY recommend you use "Windows Terminal" when using WSL.
If you do not have it installed currently install it from from the Microsoft Store.
If there is any errors related to Windows Services for Linux not being enabled
on your PC let IT know with a Zendesk ticket that we need to enable WSL on your PC.
The install can easily take 15-30 minutes, so please be patient. Once installed the root/sudo password is "Walleye1". Anaconda is installed by default and is already activated. "conda" commands can be run without sourcing anything
From a windows terminal:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19045.4529]
(c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Users\mhuff>w:
W:\>cd install\wsl
W:\>w:\install\wsl\install-wsl1.cmd
The log for for the install can be found at %LOCALAPPDATA%\TEMP
If you want more verbose output directly to the screen during the install use this instead:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19045.4529]
(c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Users\mhuff>w:
W:\>cd install\wsl
W:\Install\WSL>.\install-wsl1-verbose.cmd
The script will make this distribution the default WSL distribution (marked with a *). To show your distributions, type "wsl --list --verbose"
W:\Install\WSL>wsl --list --verbose
