How do I upgrade Terraform in WSL2?

Ever wanted to upgrade Terraform to a newer version, but forgot how to do it? Here’s how!

First, find the download link on the Terraform downloads page.
Pick the one for linux AMD64!

At the time of writing, this was the link I needed: https://releases.hashicorp.com/terraform/1.1.6/terraform_1.1.6_linux_amd64.zip

Now execute the following script and replace the link with the version you need!
Make sure to execute the script into your home or a custom directory!

wget https://releases.hashicorp.com/terraform/1.1.6/terraform_1.1.6_linux_amd64.zip -O terraform.zip; 
unzip terraform.zip; 
sudo mv terraform /usr/local/bin; 
rm terraform.zip;

Explanation:

• Step 1: download the latest version of the Terraform executable package and save it as terraform.zip
• Step 2: unzip the file.
• Step 3: move it to your /usr/local/bin folder, this needs root privileges
• Step 4: remove the downloaded terraform.zip file again.
