Public bug reported: Upstream bug reported: https://github.com/wslutilities/wslu/issues/110
**Background Information:** WSL: Ubuntu 18.04 Version: 2.3.2-0ubuntu2~18.04.3 When creating a Win shortcut for a GUI Linux program I end up with a shortcut that is not working. **To Reproduce** wslusc --gui pycharm.sh This results in a shortcut with the following target: C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe C:\Users\Marco Brieden\wslu\runHidden.vbs C:\Users\Marco Brieden\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\CanonicalGroupLimited.Ubuntu18.04onWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\ubuntu1804.exe run "cd ~; . /usr/share/wslu/wsl-integration When opened it gives this error: "There is no file extension in "C:\Users\Marco" **Additional context** It looks like there are two separate issues: 1. The space in my username breaks the shortcut. 2. The max length of the "target" field has been exceeded and the command got cut off. ** Affects: wslu Importance: Critical Status: Unknown ** Affects: wslu (Ubuntu) Importance: Critical Assignee: Patrick Wu (callmepk) Status: In Progress ** Changed in: wslu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Critical ** Changed in: wslu (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Bug watch added: github.com/wslutilities/wslu/issues #110 https://github.com/wslutilities/wslu/issues/110 ** Also affects: wslu via https://github.com/wslutilities/wslu/issues/110 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: wslu Importance: Unknown => Critical ** Changed in: wslu (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Patrick Wu (callmepk) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1871986 Title: Wslusc shortcut not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wslu/+bug/1871986/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
