SDE on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) fails

[Pietrucha__Jakub]

Hello,

I am trying to run sde64 from Ubuntu 20.04 installed on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and it fails.

strace -o strace.txt sde64 -- /bin/bash

E: Fork for injector launcher failed: Bad address

Execution fails on clone() system call

strace -o strace.txt sde64 -- /bin/bash

Could you please advise if there is a way to make it working?
