Also, if I open the desktop shortcut properties I see that target is truncated:
C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe C:\\Users\\username\wslu\runHidden.vbs "C:\\Users\\username\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\CanonicalGroupLimited.Ubuntu20.04onWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\\ubuntu2004.exe" run "cd ~; . /usr/share/wslu/wsl-integration.s Could be that the target is too long when `--gui` flag is used? Without `--gui` flag, the target is much shorter: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\CanonicalGroupLimited.Ubuntu20.04onWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\ubuntu2004.exe run "cd ~; terminator" -- 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/1914601 Title: GUI apps do not start from the link created Status in wslu package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS Release: 20.04 wslu: Installed: 2.3.6-0ubuntu2~20.04.0 Candidate: 2.3.6-0ubuntu2~20.04.0 Version table: *** 2.3.6-0ubuntu2~20.04.0 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.3.6-0ubuntu1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages C:\Users\username\Desktop>wsl -l -v NAME STATE VERSION * Ubuntu-20.04 Running 2 $ wslusc --version wslu v2.3.6; wslusc v37 $ wslusc terminator [info] Create shortcut terminator.lnk successful C:\Users\username\Desktop>terminator.lnk Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused You need to run terminator in an X environment.
