I forgot to add that you can't run WSL2 and VirtualBox at the same time. WSL2 uses Hyper-V under the covers and that's incompatible with VirtualBox atm. You can make VirtualBox run with Hyper-V but the scuttlebutt is you'd have much more fun watching paint dry than running VirtualBox guests on Hyper-V...

If you use VirtualBox don't use WSL2.
