Product: HP AMD Ryzen laptop - 74F279DA-8D15-442A-92FA-930BB170A3FB
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
I am trying to get the Linux subsystem functional on this x64 AMD Ryzen laptop to no avail. I have gone through much of the recommendations online and still not having any luck. Has someone at HP, or an HP user figured this out? Thanks.

Linux Subsystem for Windows is basically a Microsoft invention -- and is not purely Linux.
If you have problems getting it to work, you have to contact Microsoft Support about that.
