  "https://gist.github.com/annasoldih/05a3423c877eae701076436cf00bbd43#file-install-sg-sh"

• Make the install-sg.sh file executable:

  chmod +x /tmp/install-sg.sh

• Run the executable file:

  /tmp/install-sg.sh && rm /tmp/install-sg.sh

• Restart your computer

• You can check if it is already working on your WSL terminal:

• If it is not working, you can enable it on your powershell terminal:

  wsl genie -s

• Test it again on your WSL terminal:

  sudo systemctl status time-sync.target

Requerimentos

• Windows 11 (também deve funcionar no Windows 10)
• WSL2
• SYSTEMD-GENIE

Instalação

• Copie o arquivo install-sg.sh:

cd /tmp

wget --content-disposition \
  "https://gist.github.com/annasoldih/05a3423c877eae701076436cf00bbd43#file-install-sg-sh"

• Torne o arquivo install-sg.sh executável:

  chmod +x /tmp/install-sg.sh

• Execute o arquivo:

  /tmp/install-sg.sh && rm /tmp/install-sg.sh

• Reinicie seu computador

• Você pode checar se está funcionando no seu terminal WSL:

  sudo systemctl status time-sync.target

• Se não estiver funcionando, habilite no seu terminal powershell:

  wsl genie -s

• Teste novamente no seu terminal WSL:

  sudo systemctl status time-sync.target
