About this tag
This tag covers WSL 2.7.x release-family validation for enterprise pilot and rollout decisions. Its central focus is confirming the exact package build rather than treating a successful distro launch as approval evidence. Discussions address host-and-guest regression testing on x64 and Windows on ARM, including DNS, HTTPS, proxy and PAC access, VPN-only resources, localhost workflows, containers, and recovery after restart or suspend events. The tag is useful for readers assessing whether a particular WSL 2.7.x build is ready to advance beyond a pilot, especially when ARM-specific failures, deployment configuration, or broader reliability evidence may affect the decision.
