Windows Subsystem for Linux was introduced with the Anniversary Update on August 2, 2016, only an Ubuntu image was available. The Fall Creators Update, released on October 17, 2017, moved the installation process for Linux distributions to the Windows Store, and introduced SUSE images.
WSL is available only in 64 bit versions of Windows 10 from version 1607. It is also available in Windows Server 2019.
Microsoft announced WSL 2 on May 6th, 2019, which features a completely new VM-based backend in lieu of the prior system call adaptation layer, planned for release through the Windows Insider program in June 2019.

WSL2 will be released in the first half of 2020. WSL 2 is based on a Linux 4.19 kernel that uses technology built for Azure. Because it uses a real Linux kernel, WSL 2 can run ELF64 Linux binaries on Windows. This changes how Linux binaries interact with Windows and your computer’s hardware. WSL 2 even supports running Linux Docker containers natively, so that VMs are no longer required.

Docker announced that its native Docker Desktop Windows application will soon switch to the Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 (WSL 2) from the Windows-native Hyper-V virtualization it currently uses. Starting with its second installment, WSL2 uses a genuine open-source kernel compiled from the stable 4.19 version release of Linux at Kernel.org, making it no longer necessary to use a translation layer between apps and their normal system calls.
