Copy Files from Windows to Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) [closed]
You should be able to access your windows system under the /mnt directory. For example inside of bash, use this to get to your pictures directory:
cd /mnt/c/Users/<ubuntu.username>/PicturesHope this helps!
You should only access Linux files system (those located in lxss folder) from inside WSL; DO NOT create/modify any files in lxss folder in Windows - it's dangerous and WSL will not see these files.
Files can be shared between WSL and Windows, though; put the file outside of lxss folder. You can access them via drvFS (/mnt) such as /mnt/c/Users/yourusername/files within WSL. These files stay synced between WSL and Windows.
