Microsoft has decided to provide a real bash shell with real Ubuntu utilities. It has apt-get and is pretty nice, way better than the old cmd shell https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/about If you want to use WSL, then you should treat it as Linux (because it is not Windows). So you should install Linux version of Go on WSL, not Windows version. And WSL is not supported by Go yet (see https://github.com/golang/go/issues/16628 for details). I hope it helps.
