Windows 11: WSL2 cannot able to start, Error: 0x80041002 #8657
Trying to start the WSL application or any distros
Expected Behavior
Should be able to start normally
Actual Behavior
Cannot able to start. I reviewed all solutions mentioned in #5329 and #5340 all methods does not work.
My hyper-v option missing strangely in option features.
I think this issue maybe related with the software VMware Workstation Pro 16 I installed before, but the problem remains even I uninstall the software completely.
Returns error below:
Error: 0x80041002
Error code: Wsl/Service/CreateInstance/CreateVm/ConfigureNetworking/0x80041002
Press any key to continue...
[process exited with code 4294967295 (0xffffffff)]
I know someone is going to say duplicated, but I think it is not, I am NOT able to solve the issue according to #5329 and #5340 or doing Google search for hours.
I did the steps in this answer on the Superuser, and reinstalled the WSL completely (sadly, I lost my 5 distro configs and files in it), but I re-encounter the problem again, now I only able to use WSL1 and unable to install WSL2 distros or transfer the WSL1 distros to WSL2, and same error code 0x80041002
Deactivate Hypervisor and WSL service in Windows Features + Restart
Activate Hypervisor and WSL service in Windows Features + Restart
If you install the Distribution via Shell, start it as admin
Then install it
I found that every time I tried to open or install WSL2 distro, the device manager would appear a Hyper-V Virtual Switch Extension Adapter, but it cannot start successfully, seems has some issues, but I am not able to fix this after doing a lot of Google search, I think this maybe the breakpoint. Please help, thanks.
I have already enabled the WSL and virtualization in Windows optional features.
Thank you Cactus (@erbanku). I have added another log provider to our log collection script.
Can you please share another trace of the issue ? /logs
After days of waiting and unable to solve the problem even after trying almost all methods, I came up with CLEAN INSTALL THE WHOLE SYSTEM and managed to solve it. Thanks!
