After I updated to 2.5.0.2, and found that the colors in the user prompt disappeared. Is it normal?

Run echo $PS1 in wsltty and wsl in command prompt window. Are those same?

RowanSkie commented 3 years ago

image Apparently not.

Then there is some issue with .bashrc or .bash_profile or .profile files in user's home folder ~

Apparently wsltty don't count as a color-applicable terminal, so I uncommented force_color_prompt.

Don't know what your latest comment refers to. Mintty supports all colour operations fully and nothing has changed.

Just my Ubuntu install, then most likely. A false alarm.
