No, I'm still not using it because my Thinkpad (X1 Extreme 2nd) still doesn't offer the Windows 10 2004 update for installation, so I don't have WSL2, only WSL1

No, I'm still not using it because my Thinkpad (X1 Extreme 2nd) still doesn't offer the Windows 10 2004 update for installation, so I don't have WSL2, only WSL1. Does anyone here know what's up with that?
- discordance 6y agoI received the update to 2004 in the last week. Maybe check again?
- ray_z 6y agoyou don't need the 2004 update, if you have 1903 or newer, you can install it. [https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/wsl-2-support-is-coming-to-windows-10-versions-1903-and-1909 https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/wsl-2-support-is-...]
- gpvos 6y agoAh yes, just found that too. (It's only two weeks old; apparently I missed this piece of news.) That page is particularly unhelpful though, since I'm not getting that update in Windows Update either. I am now downloading it from https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4566116 https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB456... , a link I found in the comments at the bottom. Update: yup, got WSL2 working.
