How to create an Ubuntu instance in Windows Subsystem for Linux

Create a Windows Subsystem for Linux instance of Ubuntu:

• Microsoft Store App
• Enable WSL
• Search for Ubuntu
• 
• Create a password in a password manager, e.g., 1Password
• Install (or open). You may have to install kernel updates and allow Powershell scripts to run.
  • Powershell as Administrator
  • Set-ExecutionPolicy ByPass -scope LocalMachine
• When the text-input screen comes up, use tab and enter to navigate, not mouse-clicks.
  • 
• Take defaults (you will have to manually enter your password)
• Make copy/paste easier
  • Set in Defaults as well as Properties
  • You may still need to use shift-insert to paste password prompts.
