Hello everyone! I understand this might be a tricky question, but I'm trying to set up Ubuntu from the Microsoft Store for programming purposes. After installing it, I encountered several issues: a strange message about an unavailable network name, "Element not found," and repeatedly being asked to create a default UNIX account without any name. Since I've installed Ubuntu twice on different computers without this problem, I'm unsure what's going wrong now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
