I forgot to add that you can't run WSL2 and VirtualBox at the same time. WSL2 uses Hyper-V under the covers and that's incompatible with VirtualBox atm. You can make VirtualBox run with Hyper-V but the scuttlebutt is you'd have much more fun watching paint dry than running VirtualBox guests on Hyper-V... If you use VirtualBox don't use WSL2. /allen ________________________________ Disclaimer Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail, and any attachments and/or documents linked to this email, are intended for the addressee and may contain information that is privileged, confidential, proprietary, or otherwise protected by law.
