Custom WSL Distributions
For installing the distribution we'll be using WSLDL, start by downloading the latest version of the Launcher.exe executable, rename it to your distribution's name of choice, such as oraclelinux.exe and place your created rootfs.tar.gz file beside it, move them into a directory where you want to install your WSL filesystem, and finish off by running the launcher executable we downloaded and renamed earlier, and.. you're done, the distribution is now installed into WSL and you can configure and setup everything as you need.

Finally, Slackware distro for WSL, check it out!
Could you update your github repository. You seemed to have copied a large amount of content from MS provided WSL launcher code, used to create distributions for the store. But you didn't update the readme files. They read still as if the code is from MS. See: https://github.com/Mohsens22/WSLackware/tree/main/src/WSLackwareLauncher
