What's new in the WSL Management PowerShell module

Version 2.1 (2023-09-27)

Version 2.0 (2023-09-11)

  • Improvements to the Import-WslDistribution and Export-WslDistribution cmdlets.
    • Support importing and exporting VHD files, including importing a VHD in place.
    • Export-WslDistribution now returns information about the created files, rather than the distributions.
    • The -Passthru parameter has been removed from these cmdlets, and they now always return values.
    • Accept paths with custom PowerShell drives, as long as they use the file system provider.
  • The Invoke-WslCommand and Enter-WslDistribution cmdlets support specifying the working directory and shell type, and support the system distribution.
  • The Invoke-WslCommand cmdlet supports specifying a command without quoting it, when using the -RawCommand parameter.
  • The Invoke-WslCommand cmdlet supports running commands using WSLg.
  • Added a Get-WslVersion command that returns an object with version information about WSL and its components.
  • The Get-WslDistribution cmdlet no longer throws an exception if there are no installed WSL distributions; instead, it just returns no items.
  • Added the WslDistribution.VhdPath property for WSL2 distributions.
  • The WslDistribution.FileSystemPath property uses the \\wsl.localhost prefix instead of \\wsl$.
  • The module now works if the WSL_UTF8 environment variable is set.
  • Added aliases for several parameters on the cmdlets.
  • Various bug fixes.

Version 1.0 (2019-10-23)

  • This is the first release of the WSL Management PowerShell module.
