Installation Steps

Check that the WSL 2 feature are enabled. If not, enable it. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install. See below image for the necessary features (red underline).

Turn on Docker Desktop and check that "Use WSL 2 based engine" is checked. It was greyed out and the default for me.

Select "Apply and Restart".
Open a terminal with Admin privileges, and then type "wsl.exe -l -v" to check the version.
