Oh, I definitely have WSL enabled, but there are enough quirks with it that it definitely doesn't help. One huge thing is that stuff you create gets set to 777. In the Windows environment, this is expected. But outside of /mnt/c I would figure that standard Linux perms would be honored. Nope. This has been very inconsistent. That leads me to conclude that my options are either to figure out all the workarounds to do stuff from Windows natively, or keep a Linux VM handy.
