    I had a similar incident after installing then uninstalling VMware, which left my Hyper-V Extensible Virtual Switch entirely broken. I was unable to load WSL2 for about 10 days due to the missing virtual network adapter.

    What fixed it for me was removing this registry key which VMware left behind:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{3d09c1ca-2bcc-40b7-b9bb-3f3ec143a87b}
    

    After removing this registry key manually, then clicking Network Reset on the Networking Control Panel page, my system came back up with fully working networking, including my WSL2 launching again!

    Note: Network Reset made me wait 5 minutes before it rebooted the system.

    Hope it helps other people who are stuck!

    Other error codes and error messages I experienced:
