I have installed Bash on Ubuntu on Windows (after enabling the feature in settings)
I don't remember what I did, but the result was that apt-get doesn't locate ANY package
With and without sudo:
$ apt-get install
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package
I tried many fixes found on this site, like:
apt-get upgrade & apt-get update
& I tried recreating resources.list using nano
How could this be fixed?
