I tried to use this command to solve " icacls "D:\WSL2archlinux" /reset /T ", but the system crashed after a while.
Thank you for reporting this @zyfpga. Interestingly I can't reproduce this.
Did you run the commands in the same Terminal, one after the other, or are did you run them "in parralel" ?
@OneBlue I'm very sorry that I couldn't describe my process in detail.At first, I was running it in the same terminal. After closing it and reopening my computer, I found this problem.It is not to run commands one after another in the same terminal.
I'm sorry to bother you, @OneBlue. I miss the problem that I ran the commands in the same Terminal. And now, I don't know how to address it.
