While you can continue to run Linux distro in WSL 1 mode after installing WSLg if you so desired, a distro configured to run in WSL 1 mode will not be able to communicate with WSLg and will not be able to run GUI applications. Verify that your Linux distro is configured for running in WSL 2 mode, if not switch to WSL 2.
