WSLRun([wsl.exe -l]): exit status 0xffffffff
If you encounter this message during the FluxCore installation or while the UI is installing dependencies, it indicates an issue with your WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) setup.
Here's how you can potentially resolve the issue:
Check for .wslconfig File:
Navigate to
C:\Users\<User>
in File Explorer.Look for a file named
.wslconfig
.
Note: It may be hidden. To reveal hidden files, right-click inside the
C:\Users\<User>
folder, select "Properties," check the "Hidden" checkbox, click "Apply," and then "OK."
Check for fluxcore-wsl-kernel:
Ensure that a directory named
fluxcore-wsl-kernel
exists inC:\Users\<User>
.
Delete .wslconfig:
If you find the
.wslconfig
file, delete it.
Delete FluxCore in AppData:
Navigate to
C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\FluxCore
.Delete the
FluxCore
folder.Note: The file
OpenHardwareMonitorLib.sys
may not delete itself. This file is for monitoring CPU temperature and is not critical if it remains.
Rerun FluxCore.exe:
Once you've deleted these files and folders, rerun the
FluxCore.exe
installation file.
Following these steps should prevent the error message from appearing again.
