I just installed WSL so I can learn Linux before I totally get rid of windows. If anyone has any suggestions for windows users learning Linux I will read them!
You could look at dual boot instead of WSL. YouTube has some pretty decent tutorial. Just make sure you take all tutorials with a pinch of salt; don’t EVER run a command without looking it up first and checking out what it does; and try to find the most recent tutorials you can.
You may also have a local Linux club that can help you get started too 🙂

Dual booting always fucks up my Windows installation. I have to fix it using Linux every time I wanna use Windows.
I assume you’ve got the boot partitions on the same drive? I’ve found it is easier when you have windows on a completely separate drive.
My only other suggestion would be to check out the Arch Wiki on dual booting - it’s a goldmine for working out dual boot issues.

Not so easy when you’re trying to do this on a laptop.
