Recently I tried to cut corners by copying my ~/.ssh from Cygwin into my WSL-user's home directory with the Windows Explorer and wondered why the folder was not visible from within WSL. cp-ing it from within WSL's /mnt/... solved the issue but left me still wondering. At least this post confirms that there be dragons, if I move files manually into the lxss folder.

I added some commands to my .bashrc that syncs my config files when I login.

Small correction: "I move files manually into the lxss folder" USING WINDOWS! ;) Copying or moving files via Bash using cp / mv works as expected.
