nRF Connect (v2024.9.5) under WSL not working

[Andrei H.]

Hi,

 I have the following version(s):

1. Windows ver: 23H2 build 22631.4317
2. WSL version: 2.2.4.0 (OS Ubuntu-22.04)
3. VSCode Version: 1.94.2 (user setup) (latest)
4. nRF Connect for VS Code Extension Pack v2024.9.5 (latest)
5. Toolchain v2.7.0 (newest)

 The problem is it's not doing anything, its saying "Activating Extensions" forever, not working, e.g.:

1. 
2. 

 Anything can be done to fix this?

Regards.

Hi Andrei,

I heard back from R&D and it is that we don't officially support WSL.. 

Best Regards,

Hi SwRa, 

 We could then just close this ticket.

 Reinstalling WSL2 from scratch (a bit overkill) makes it work again.

Regards.
