Description

Hello,

I currently have two GPUs in my system. When I start WSL both of them are detected and used.

Is it possible to deactivate a specific GPU in WSL2?

Research direction

The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing WSL2 with two GPUs and determine whether per-GPU deactivation is currently supported or requires a new design. Done would require a documented, verifiable way to select which GPU WSL2 can use.
