Are there any simple instructions. I swear everything is seen just goes over my head.

WSL is really easy to setup by now. In the beginning it was really terrible.

Now all you need to do (if you are fine with Ubuntu) is open CMD with admin rights and input wsl --install.

If you want another distro, it's wsl -l -o to check the available distros and wsl --install -d to install it.

More documentation here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install
