When I was playing around with WSL a few months ago, I came across this emphatic caution from the devs to not modify any files in the Linux subsystem using Windows applications (aka anything with a GUI)[1]. Apparently it destroys file metadata and breaks things.
I know it's not that hard to keep your stuff in /mnt/c or wherever, but I wonder if there is any plan (or if it's even possible) to eliminate this last bit of incompatibility.
Is it possible to run a GUI version of the Linux version of VSCode on WSL?
