I need to install Redis on my Microsoft Windows 10 22H2 version.

Referred below link on installing wsl2

During Ubuntu installation, initially got up with this error

“WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80370102

Error: 0x80370102 The virtual machine could not be started because a required feature is not installed.”
