Permanent issue. No amount of googling is resolving my issue.
Very frustrating.

Why am I seeing [process exited with code ...]?

The root cause is probably directly related to whatever application you're running in the Terminal. I'd guess that you're hitting a WSL bug, just from these search results:

I resolved it by running the following command (in powershell, as admin):
wsl --update --web-download

The regular wsl --update wasn't working (Timing out).

Things that should be checked/enabled:
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart (as admin in Powershell)
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart (as admin in Powershell)
Ensuring hyper-V was enabled and set in BIOS - also in additional features (above command should do it)

Things that might have helped:

adding C:/Windows/System32 to environment variables

adding "commandline": "wsl -d distroname" in
%localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.Windos.Terminal._……\LocalState\settings.json
(This seems to be for running a command upon opening terminal/powershell/whatever shell profile and booting into the specified distro)

Also tried, but didn't seem to help:
netsh winsock reset (as admin in Powershell)

wsl --setdefault distro-name

wsl --unregister distro-name
then re-adding it
wsl --import distro-name $env:USERPROFILE\location\for-distro-name\ $env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\distro-name.tar.gz
