Repro Steps

Recently, I encountered a Windows update problem that crashed my computer several times, and I accidentally removed the virtual infrastructure driver, which made me face error code 0x8037012.
When I tried to fix the former problem, I reinstalled wsl by wsl --install and some other action, like re-enabling the virtual platform and hyper-v several times.
In the end, I fixed the problem by reinstalling VID with the device manager. However, after reinstalling the vid, I solved the situation above but met a new problem: "Error code: Wsl/Service/CreateInstance/CreateVm/ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND."
Because I do too many things, I need help figuring out what led to the problem I meet now.
Thanks for helping!

Expected Behavior

Normally start wsl.

Actual Behavior

Error code: Wsl/Service/CreateInstance/CreateVm/ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND

I use strace wsl and got following result. Am I possible to know what file is it looking for?

I'm not sure I know what you mean by strace wsl, strace is only going to capture what is going on in the guest.

You need to let the /log collection script run while running wsl --install or whatever the problematic commands are. I don't see anything in the traces attached.
