Hi @Ross

Thank you for your reply! 😄  
I’m not familiar with any IDE tool you’re going to use, but in order to be able to access that wsl path on Windows, I think you would first need to map it - similar to what I suggested in the other (old) thread here:

> I agreed with @Alessandro slight_smile if you would like to access that wsl path from the command line, you would need to map that network location into a “local drive” . You could use the command with something like this: net use z: \\wsl.localhost\docker-desktop-data (you may change the z: part with any local drive you want to map/assign for that network path - as long as they don’t exist on your local computer). After that you could just go to that new location you just mapped to that …

so you can open up command line and perform the command like:  
`net use z: \\wsl.localhost\docker-desktop-data`

or you can change/use that `z` with any non-existing local drive you want to map/assign for that network path.

Once mapped, you may want to check with your IDE tool, and see if it can open that new mapped drive? i.e: `Z:\` (or any new mapped drive you set up) , and go to the `data\docker\volumes\DevKinsta\public` folder and also its local site’s folder there.

Hope the workaround above helps? 🙏 🤞

Best regards,  
Agus Utomo
