Describe the bug

When I do wslview . for example, the path to the folder in wsl is resolved to /lxss/... Example:

➜ wslview --debug .
[debug:/usr/bin/wslview] Showing debug output.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install wslu
  2. type wslview . in WSL-Terminal

Expected behavior

wslu opens an explorer window with the current directory

Additional context

wslview "https://www.github.com" works. wslpath . also resolves the path to /lxss/...

Code of Conduct

This is because I had https://github.com/laurent22/wslpath installed. So this was called instead of MS' wslpath. I deleted wslpath in /usr/bin and it works now.
