Right! Referring to the wsl-doc which first seemed confusing, I was able to identify one major culprit: myself. Wsl, of course, has to be running in the background for "\\_wsl$" _to show the desired result. (I could have realized myself, as when clicking on the popped-up "network" folder windows complains there is no active network) So when asked correctly, the folder Debian (shown in Explorer as Netzwerk > wsl$ > Debian) pops up correctly, too. That was mistake No.1 _> _2. What happens when you issue > explorer.exe . > in wsl bash console? > (a) Does that display the linux files in the directory where you issued > the command?
