Could you post a screenshot of your Ubuntu profile similar to this screenshot of my PowerShell profile?

Hey, sorry for losing track of this one. We've got a theory that this was due to an older version of WSL that might just be fixed on newer Windows versions. Are you still seeing this?

If you are, we think that you might be able to work around this by changing the commandline of your Ubuntu profile to:

wsl -d Ubuntu ~

Does that work/?
