Summary | 0005253: WSL Distro Kali Linux Config --default-user root Doesn't Work | ||||

After upgrading to Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17763.316] WSL distro of Kali linux opens as the previously set default user (kali config --default-user root) but cannot be switched back to previous user with the same command (kali config --default-user username) |
|
I noticed that step 2 in that list is missing the "config" option. |
|
@re4son: That was a typo...I was using kali config --default-user root. Also, after upgrading to Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17763.316] and rebooting, kali starts as root but kali config --default-user username does not work to switch back to the user. |
|
Please close. Restarting the LxssManager service commits the change. I'll put in a request to update the docs. |
