Fixing Windows Subsystem for Linux error code 0x80370102 when virtualisation is enabled in the BIOS

Problem:

Virtualisation is enabled in the BIOS but you still encounter Windows Subsystem for Linux error 0x80370102.

Solution:

Make sure that the hypervisor launch is enabled in your boot configuration. You can check this by typing in CMD (run as administrator):

bcdedit /enum | findstr -i hypervisorlaunchtype

If turned off, enable by typing:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype Auto

Then restart your machine and try launching WSL again.
