Actual Behavior

PS C:\Users\colem> wsl --list --online

@colemar first entry Ubuntu is Ubuntu-22.04:

       {
            "Name": "Ubuntu",
            "FriendlyName": "Ubuntu",
            "StoreAppId": "9PDXGNCFSCZV",
            "Amd64": true,
            "Arm64": true,
            "Amd64PackageUrl": "https://wslstorestorage.blob.core.windows.net/wslblob/Ubuntu_2204-221101_x64.appx",
            "Arm64PackageUrl": "https://wslstorestorage.blob.core.windows.net/wslblob/Ubuntu_2204-221101_ARM64.appx",
            "PackageFamilyName": "CanonicalGroupLimited.Ubuntu_79rhkp1fndgsc"
        },

See details at:

WSL/distributions/DistributionInfo.json

Line 4 in c67e3fe

"Name": "Ubuntu",

Maybe FriendlyName should be changed to Ubuntu 22.04

[colemar]

Understood.
Thank you.

@colemar @elsaco This is not fixed. Ubuntu is still the 20.04 version.

Latest version of Ubuntu can be downloaded from here https://apps.microsoft.com/store/search?hl=en-us&gl=us&publisher=Canonical%20Group%20Limited

@Biswa96 It's not for me. It's for all people.
