Hi there,
There are a couple of things we can try to resolve this issue, and I’ll break them down step by step.
- Unpin the Broken WSL Link from Quick Access:
Clear Quick Access history:
Open File Explorer.
Click on **View** → **Show** → **Options**.
Under **General**, click **Clear** next to **Clear File Explorer history**.
**Restart** your PC and check if the WSL link is gone.
**Remove via PowerShell**:
Open **PowerShell** as Admin.
Run this command to remove the WSL pin:
```powershell
powershell
Copy
Remove-Item "C:\Users\$env:USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\<filename>"
```
Replace `<filename>` with the name of the WSL-related file you see when running `Get-ChildItem "C:\Users\$env:USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\*"`
**Reboot your PC** after performing these steps.
- Fix Access to the Broken Link:
Re-pin the WSL Share:
Open File Explorer.
Go to `\\wsl$\Ubuntu\home\jay`.
Right-click on the folder and select **Pin to Quick Access**.
Now the link should work.
- Remove the Old Broken Link:
- Right-click on the old, broken pinned item in Quick Access and select Unpin from Quick Access.
If none of these methods work, it might be worth checking for updates to Windows 11, as certain updates have resolved Quick Access bugs in the past.
Let me know how it goes or if you run into any other issues!
