I followed the steps on getting it setup posted on howtogeek. Unfortunately, when I clicked on bash, the console would just come up and disappear in a flash. Too fast for me to read the error. Super frustrating.
By spamming bash.exe I was able to make out the following error:
Unsupported console settings. In order to use this feature the legacy console must be disabled.
Now I had something to work with! A bit of looking around and I found the solution.
Open a CMD prompt and click the icon in the upper left corner. Choose properties. Uncheck Use legacy console. Try to open bash again.
After that, I was able to continue.
Hope this helps someone. Good luck and happy coding!
