Probably a solution for WSL not working on Canary Insider Release

[Annlix]

If you upgrade to the latest Canary Insider Release, you may encounter the issue of WSL not working :(

Specifically, it could be that Docker can't start, or can't install the wsl distribution (when you attempt to install a distribution, you will spend a lot of time during the install stage and then failed, the error code maybe HCS_E_SERVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE or something similar).

Maybe you can try turn off the Hyper-V feature on appwiz.cpl, like this:

I tried that on 27818 and start my wsl successfully.
