Pi-hole WSL folder not accessible from Windows anymore #114

I had been using Pihole as installed by this script for a couple of years. After a reboot recently, the WSL folder for Pihole stopped being accessible.

On File Explorer, I see the "Pi-hole" folder, but when I try to open it, this is displayed:

\\wsl.localhost\Pi-hole is not accessible. You might not yet have permission to use this network resource....

I uninstalled Pihole using the CMD file in the Program Files Folder. I also removed the WSL folder from the command line, and then I tried a fresh install using the latest version of the script.

When running the installation script, I see the following errors right after "Please wait a few minutes for package installer...":

Error: 0xd000020c

I see the Pi-hole folder created again on File Explorer, but it's still not accessible. Same error.

I enclose the log files from the "c:\programfiles\pi-hole" folder.

Hello, this is a bug in WSL - updating to 2.1.5 should sort you out. https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/11255#issuecomment-1989894835

Yes, updating to WSL 2.1.5.0 fixed this. Thanks!
