Thank you for the report. >From the look of it, it is a badly generated ~/.config/wslu/exec/baseexec. Right now we have a fix to solve this problem, but only available for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS for now. It will be available to bionic (and also xenial) very soon.
For now, you can edit thi file manually to `/mnt/c/Users/<Your Windows User Folder>/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/CanonicalGroupLimited.Ubuntu18.04onWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc/ubuntu1804.exe` for "Ubuntu 18.04 LTS" or `/mnt/c/Users/<Your Windows User Folder>/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/CanonicalGroupLimited.UbuntuonWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc/ubuntu.exe` for "Ubuntu". Also thanks to you, I discovered another bug affecting the latest fix. ** Changed in: wslu (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: wslu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: wslu (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => In Progress ** Changed in: wslu (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Patrick Wu (callmepk) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to wslu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1880649 Title: wslusc creates bogus .lnk file that tries to run spotify Status in wslu package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Created link includes a lot of nonsense such as microsoft edge, spotify, gamebar. None of that nonsense is in my windoze or wsl/ubuntu enviroment variables, either. And I checked for malware recently and there is nothing but "netcat" which was deliberately installed. Spotify is installed because it came with the machine. wsl sudo apt-get install xplanet wsl sudo apt-get install wslu wsl sudo apt-get install liblnk-utils wsl wslusc -gui /usr/bin/xplanet wsl dpkg -l wslu Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==============-============-============-================================= ii wslu 2.3.2-0ubunt all collection of utilities for the W wsl wslsys Release Install Date: 0x5e36ca7a Branch: 19h1_release Build: 18363 Full Build: 18362.1.amd64fre.19h1_release.190318-1202 Uptime: 0d 0h 0m Linux Release: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Linux Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-18362-Microsoft Packages Count: 1780 wsl lnkinfo /mnt/c/Users/Hp/Desktop/xplanet.lnk lnkinfo 20171101 Windows Shortcut information: Contains a link target identifier Contains a relative path string Contains a command line arguments string Contains an icon location string Contains an icon location block Link information: Creation time : Mar 19, 2019 04:45:02.866733500 UTC Modification time : Mar 19, 2019 04:45:02.866733500 UTC Access time : Feb 02, 2020 14:43:27.923781000 UTC File size : 165888 bytes Icon index : 0 Show Window value : 0x00028800 Hot Key value : 34816 File attribute flags : 0x00000020 Should be archived (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE) Drive type : Fixed (3) Drive serial number : 0xf8897cc4 Volume label : Local path : C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe Relative path : ..\..\..\..\..\Windows\System32\wscrip t.exe Command line arguments : C:\\Users\\Hp\wslu\runHidden.vbs C:\\U sers\\Hp\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\GameBarElevatedFT_Alias.exe?\\ mnt\\c\\Users\\Hp\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\Microsoft.MicrosoftEd ge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\\MicrosoftEdge.exe?\\mnt\\c\\Users\\Hp\\AppData\\Local\\Microso ft\\WindowsApps\\Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay_8wekyb3d8bbwe\\GameBarElevatedFT_Al ias.exe?\\mnt\\c\\Users\\Hp\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\MicrosoftEd ge.exe?\\mnt\\c\\Users\\Hp\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\Spotify.exe? \\mnt\\c\\Users\\Hp\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\SpotifyAB.SpotifyMu sic_zpdnekdrzrea0\\Spotify.exe run "cd ~; . /usr/share/wslu/wsl-integration.sh; /usr/bin/xplanet" Icon location : %SystemDrive%\\Users\\Hp\wslu\wsl.ico Link target identifier: Shell item list Number of items : 5 Shell item: 1 Item type : Root folder Class type indicator : 0x1f (Root folder) Shell folder identifier : 20d04fe0-3aea-1069-a2d8-08002b30309d Shell folder name : My Computer Shell item: 2 Item type : Volume Class type indicator : 0x2f (Volume) Volume name : C:\ Shell item: 3 Item type : File entry Class type indicator : 0x31 (File entry: Directory) Name : Windows Modification time : May 08, 2020 07:08:50 File attribute flags : 0x00000010 Is directory (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) Extension block: 1 Signature : 0xbeef0004 (File entry extension) Long name : Windows Creation time : Mar 19, 2019 04:37:24 Access time : May 08, 2020 07:08:50 NTFS file reference : MFT entry: 241172, sequence: 3 Shell item: 4 Item type : File entry Class type indicator : 0x31 (File entry: Directory) Name : System32 Modification time : May 15, 2020 21:28:36 File attribute flags : 0x00000010 Is directory (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY) Extension block: 1 Signature : 0xbeef0004 (File entry extension) Long name : System32 Creation time : Mar 19, 2019 04:37:24 Access time : May 15, 2020 21:28:36 NTFS file reference : MFT entry: 243080, sequence: 3 Shell item: 5 Item type : File entry Class type indicator : 0x32 (File entry: File) Name : wscript.exe Modification time : Mar 19, 2019 04:45:04 File attribute flags : 0x00000020 Should be archived (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE) Extension block: 1 Signature : 0xbeef0004 (File entry extension) Long name : wscript.exe Creation time : Mar 19, 2019 04:45:04 Access time : Feb 02, 2020 14:43:28 NTFS file reference : MFT entry: 263270, sequence: 2 Distributed link tracking data: Machine identifier : desktop-a08lnj3 Droid volume identifier : 935b88e6-9a9f-41b4-8f62-4e9e40ca01d3 Droid file identifier : cd464b87-96f3-11ea-9c89-083e8ee17a7e Birth droid volume identifier : 935b88e6-9a9f-41b4-8f62-4e9e40ca01d3 Birth droid file identifier : cd464b87-96f3-11ea-9c89-083e8ee17a7e To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wslu/+bug/1880649/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
