The information online is kinda confusing, it seems Home edition can support this using some other system based on Hyper-V, although full Hyper-V is better. As far as I understand it anyway.
We might be able to drop the section on the troubleshooting guide if so, or at least update it to point back to this doc.
| Altis Local Server supports running on Windows 10 through the use of Docker Desktop and Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). Support for Hyper-V is required, which is available on Windows 10 Professional and Enterprise editions. | ||

| **Note:** Hyper-V virtualization and networking is not available in Windows 10 Home edition. If you are using Windows 10 Home Edition you will need to use the [Local Chassis](docs://local-chassis) environment. |

For WSL2 you only need "Virtual Machine Platform" (a subset of Hyper-V) and "Windows Subsystem for Linux" features, both available in Home edition.

Yeah, technically that's true, but the UI actually confuses them in a few places. It does look like the Docker docs say it works on Home now though.
I don't have a test environment to do so though, and not sure if we really want to support it?

Let’s proceed with this then and see what comes out of support in future
Fixes #308.
