WSL Issues

no internet

microsoft/WSL#4285 (comment)

I got a clue in the following: Issue 4844 (I also removed docker WSL but I don't think that that made any diff)

1. Created a /etc/wsl.conf containing

    [network]
    generateResolvConf = false

1. I exited wsl and then issued a wsl --shutdown
2. entered wsl force deleted the /etc/resov.conf to stop it being a symbolic link

sudo rm -fd /etc/resov.conf

1. I exited wsl and then issued a wsl --shutdown
2. entered wsl and recreated a resolv.conf

    sudo  touch /etc/resov.conf
    sudo  nano /etc/resov.conf

1. Added the following line to the /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 8.8.8.8

1. I exited wsl and then issued a wsl --shutdown
2. Entered wsl and everything was now working
