Windows 10: Trying to install WSL and getting below error. Anyone face this issue and what is the fix?

WSL is blocked by SAC ?

Hello,

I'm reaching out to the community for assistance with a persistent WSL issue. Upon attempting to launch WSL, I'm encountering the following error:

WslLaunchInteractive failed with error: 0x800711e6 - System Integrity policy has been violated. Explicit denied file.

Steps Taken:

1. I have reset the Ubuntu Linux distribution.
   
2. I have uninstalled and reinstalled WSL.
   

Despite these efforts, the issue persists. I am running Windows 11 build no: 22631.2715 with WSL 2.0.9.0, and the error occurs every time I try to start WSL.

Has anyone faced a similar issue? Specifically, I'm seeking guidance on navigating the System Integrity policy that's seemingly causing the block. Any insights into how Smart App Control impacts WSL's functionality and possible configurations to mitigate this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your time and help.

 

Install WSL issue

thanks, I've tried all of it including troubleshooting section. The only step I didn't try is installing kernel update package which fails because subsystem is up to date. Anyway I've given up from WSL and using Hyper-V, I don't need linux often maybe once in a month just to test some stuff so it's not a big issue.

 

WSL install Issues

I keep getting an error when trying to run wsl --install, I keep getting Error code: Wsl/CallMsi/Install/0x80070641
I think its because I tampered with the file in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System but I don't know how to repair it
