`wslview` outputting errors from reg.exe about wslu

[patrick330602]

Please use PPA version of the Ubuntu: https://wslutiliti.es/wslu/install.html#ubuntu

[ElanHasson]

Hmm pretty sure that's what I used? Guess not though 😅

[patrick330602]

No, the PPA version for wslu is 4.1.1-1ubuntu1~22.04 while yours is 3.2.3, which is the version from the official repository

@rdeavila @abika Your issues seems to be more related to microsoft/WSL#6170 which Microsoft haven't solved yet.
