Help! WSL 2 Installation Failing on Windows 11 with Access Denied Error

I'm trying to set up Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL 2) on my Windows 11 Home system, but I keep running into a frustrating error. The Virtual Disk Service (vds), which is crucial for managing the virtual hard disks ('.vhdx' files) needed for WSL 2, isn't running and I can't seem to start it. Each time I try, I get a message saying 'Access is denied' – it seems like there might be some corrupted service permissions involved. I've checked off a few things like system misconfigurations and possible issues with ACLs or registry permissions, and even security software might be messing things up.

Here are some symptoms I've noticed:
- When I run `wsl --install -d Ubuntu`, it fails with the error code 0xc03a0014.
- `wsl --status` only shows 'Default Version: 2'.
- I can't start the Virtual Disk service due to access issues.
- Attempts to use `wsl --import` don't work either and don't register the distro.
- I can't seem to run DISM; it gets stuck.

So far, I've enabled all the necessary Windows features, manually installed the WSL 2 kernel, and tried both standard and manual distro imports, but even falling back to WSL 1 doesn't help. My DISM and SFC are still pending because my command window is unresponsive. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
