For programming guidance for this technology, see:

| WslConfigureDistribution Modifies the behavior of a distribution registered with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). |
| WslGetDistributionConfiguration Retrieves the current configuration of a distribution registered with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). |
| WslIsDistributionRegistered Determines if a distribution is registered with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). |
| WslLaunch Launches a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) process in the context of a particular distribution. |
| WslLaunchInteractive Launches an interactive Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) process in the context of a particular distribution. |
| WslRegisterDistribution Registers a new distribution with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). |
| WslUnregisterDistribution Unregisters a distribution from the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). |
