WSL not working after update from Microsoft store

[srpurani]

Hello I had successfully installed WSL few days ago and everything was working fine. But after the I got an update regarding WSL from Microsoft Store I updated WSL and since then it is throwing this error. I also restarted the computer and checked to make sure my Virtual Machine Platform and Windows Subsystem for Linux are ON and I found out that both of these services were already ON. still I get the same error. May I please get any guidance on this one? as I have to use WSL for my educational purpose that would be really helpful thanks

Installing, this may take a few minutes...
WslRegisterDistribution failed with error: 0x80070050
Error: 0x80070050 The file exists.

Try in uninstall and after restarting you system install it again hoping your problem will be solved.
I also suggest you to report this problem on "Feedback Hub"
