Revision history [back]

There are several possible causes of WSL not functioning in VS code, some of them include:

1. Incompatible or outdated versions of Windows Subsystem for Linux and VS Code.
2. Missing or corrupted dependencies or packages.
3. Improper configuration of WSL within VS Code.
4. Interference from conflicting applications or software.
5. Insufficient resources such as memory, storage or processing power.
6. Firewall settings blocking network access.
7. A bug or glitch within the software.

To resolve these issues, you can try updating both WSL and VS code to the latest version, checking and installing any missing packages or dependencies, configuring WSL properly, disabling conflicting applications or freeing up resources on your computer. You may also need to check your firewall settings and seek technical assistance or report any bug or glitch to the appropriate support team.
