innoculated

FWIW I also think this screen should be modified or removed. At the very least it needs a "what does this mean?" button to save the 10 - 15 mins of searching to understand that it is has no functional implications and that a Premium Licence can be installed for either "home" or "work".

Hi Bob Thanks for the fix and comms :-) Sorry for the delay in replying - busy work period. This morning I successfully installed WSL with Ubuntu on my machine with the latest MWareBytes official download and I was able to run and complete the sudo command in the original post. No error messages from either WSL or MWareBytes. FWIW: I am a unix novice and I only want WSL as a simple learning environment.

Thank you - I'll keep an eye out for the end of March release :-)
