[BUG] Lost templates #226

Open acidric opened 9 months ago

acidric commented 9 months ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Current Behavior

Hi, I use Wsl distro manager with everything on D:\WSL2-Distros. Everything was working fine, until I had the problem: 'wsl2-distro-manager opens with a blank screen'. I hadn't seen the solution proposed in github. So I uninstalled and reinstalled Wsl Distro Manager. Everything works again, except that when I go to Templates, I can't see my templates even though they are in (ex:D:\WSL2-Distros\templates\kali-linux.ext4) How can I get it to see them again?

Expected Behavior

Be able to reimport my templates after a crash or correct the configuration file

I agree there should be an option to re-import them! Until then just create a new distro and use the template as a rootfs.

Thank you very much for your reply, but I'm not sure I know how to do this. I'll look into it.
