It actually doesn't work right, and MS just closed the issue. I'd be fine with cifs automounts in the linux subsystem for windows file directories... I mean it may take a little work, but in the end, I want to edit files with a windows gui editor, and run them via the LSW applications. Until I can do that, it's an also ran on the desktop... and until it can be used for docker with linux containers on the server, it doesn't do much use there either.

Why can't you keep the shared files that you want to GUI edit somewhere under /mnt/?/* in a normal NTFS folder? That works fine already today.

I'm using Bash on Ubuntu on Windows for Jekyll (because installing and keeping up to date Ruby on Windows is a terrible experience and this is a much nicer alternative). My files are in D:\Repos\..., I'll have VSCode open and Jekyll running in Bash in the equivalent /mnt/d/Repos/...
