Install fabric as usual in WSL and try running fabric --gui

Version check

This is probably because you are running npm from windows and not within WSL. If you type 'which npm' in the cli, it should return a linux directory in the format '/home/[username]/...' and not a windows directory. Install node via nvm in WSL and your electron app will run. Drag&Drop doesn't work though :-(

It still does not work. However, UNC path problem is gone.

it's not WSL related. I'm on linux, in a kali distrobox container and I got:

fabric_electron@1.0.0 start electron .

libnss3 had not been caught by any dependency and needed to be installed manually.

sudo apt install libnss3 on my debian derived distro. ymmv
