Yes. It's a 15 minutes job. I did the equivalent a hundred times when I was learning, and I had no web site or community to help me.

RTFM, lurk more, etc.

Probably there was no internet ??

But you had some professor to guide you, but l'm doing an online course. There's a help community on discord, which l found very unhelpful.

I installed the WSL with the instructions of Gemini, but l've got to use my discernment while using such instructions.

No, only man pages.

Have you uninstalled WSL yet? Here: https://superuser.com/q/1317883. Also AI sucks, read the official documentation from Microsoft.

I'll be sitting down at the laptop a bit later.

That's a super link. Thanks ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

First sentences:

The WSL commands below are listed in a format supported by PowerShell or Windows Command Prompt. To run these commands from a Bash / Linux distribution command line, you must replace wsl with wsl.exe

wsl.exe --uninstall or something

Less replying, more typing. Unplug your ethernet cable for better learning.
