Common Error Codes

Here are some of the more common error codes that you might encounter while testing your distro launcher project:

For the rest of this document, we'll assume that your distro's executable is mydistro.exe, and that your distro's name (the MyDistroLauncher::_myName member) is set to L"MyDistro-1.0".

Error: 0x80070002 - File Not Found

This is likely caused by uninstalling your distro's app without first calling mydistro clean. This is due to a bug in WSL that's being fixed currently (as of May 18, 2017).

Workaround

Just install you app again, and call mydistro clean. That should clean up your registry, and you should be able to install it again perfectly fine.

Error: 0x8007007e

WSL isn't installed on you machine. Make sure to go enable WSL from the "Turn Windows features on or off" dialog in the Control Panel.
