k0s not found kubectl

To add some context to this issue, I'm also experiencing this on macOS 11.4 (20F71) using Lens version 4.2.5.

Lens seems to work fine for me until I try to update a service. In this case I switched a service type from LoadBalancer to NodePort and was presented with the above error. I can update the service no problem using the in-browser kubernetes dashboard editor. I noticed that there's an empty directory in App Support:

find ~/Library/Application\ Support/Lens/binaries

~/Library/Application Support/Lens/binaries
~/Library/Application Support/Lens/binaries/kubectl
~/Library/Application Support/Lens/binaries/kubectl/1.21.1-3+ba118484dd39df          <-- where is the binary??
~/Library/Application Support/Lens/binaries/kubectl/1.18.15
~/Library/Application Support/Lens/binaries/kubectl/1.18.15/kubectl

I'm not running 1.18.15, perhaps this is a default or something picked up by my local docker desktop install. 1.21... is correct, however there isn't a kubectl binary in there. I tried this as a workaround:

cp $(readlink $(which kubectl)) ~/Library/Application\ Support/Lens/binaries/kubectl/1.21.1-3+ba118484dd39df/

Which moved my working kubectl into the expected location. Attempting the update again reproduced the error, and the binary I copied had been removed.

I'm connecting to an Ubuntu VM running microk8s within VirtualBox, running on a Windows 10 machine on my LAN. The Ubuntu VM is using a bridged network adapter and has its own IP.

Lens: 4.2.5
Electron: 9.4.4
Chrome: 83.0.4103.122
Node: 12.14.1

snap list

microk8s  v1.21.1     2262   1.21/stable    canonical✓  classic
snapd     2.51        12159  latest/stable  canonical✓  snapd

Hope that helps diagnose this. Really nice tool, appreciate the work that's gone into it. Let me know if I can provide any more info.
