Description
WSL can be installed on Windows Server 2022 and Windows Server 2025.
Adding support to install WSL natively on Azure Local would make a lot a sense for users only using Windows Server as virtualized workloads.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by comparing the existing WSL installation paths for Windows Server 2022 and 2025 with Azure Local, then determine the compatibility and product changes required; done means WSL can be installed natively on Azure Local.
