Another issue about WSL2 GUI apps not launching

[CompeyDev]

Windows build number:

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19043.2006]

Your Distribution version:

20.04

Your WSL versions:

wsl --version does not want to run?

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run WSL
2. Attempt to a run a UI app of choice.
3. Fails to launch.

WSL logs:

WslLogs-2022-10-09_14-04-11.zip

WSL dumps:

No response

Expected behavior:

Gedit launches successfully.

Actual behavior:

Tried microsoft/WSL#6430 (comment) and multiple other solutions, however none of them fully resolve the issue. GTK no longer instantly fails to connect to display after setting the $DISPLAY var (see 1). But, it attempts to launch for ~2 minutes, and then prompts the cannot connect to display error. I believe this may be due to the connection timing out, perhaps?

Case 1: Before setting $DISPLAY

Case 2: After setting $DISPLAY

Something else I noticed is that none of my installed Linux apps sync to my start menu. I don't even seem to have the "Linux" tab in my file explorer.

You're using Windows 10 which doesn't have the integrated GUI features yet.

Updated to Windows 11 build 10.0.22621.819, still does not seem to work with the same error. When following the wiki, none of the file locations exist -- including /mnt/wslg/versions.txt.

Unsure why, help appreciated. 🙏
