Auto-redirect connection to port 4201 and fail

I am creating a website with Angular on WSL2 Ubuntu running on a Windows 10 computer.
When I launch the application with the ng serve command, I get ** Angular Live Development Server is listening on localhost:4200, open your browser on http://localhost:4200/ ** and ✔ Compiled successfully. on the command line.
But when I click on the link, the connection is redirected to http://localhost:4201/ and it fails. By changing 4201 to 4200 in the browser address field, the desired page is displayed.
I did some research without finding any mention of an exactly similar problem, but I nevertheless saw that the easiest way to fix it was to run the ng serve —port 4201 command. It does work, but obviously not anymore when I replace 4201 with 4200 in the browser address field.

I can probably settle for this solution, but I nevertheless want to report this bug for correction.

    Hi,

    Angular may be very happy seeing your bug report for the product improvement. However, Microsoft Q&A is not covering non-Microsoft products. If possible, you may visit Angular comminuty to fire up a ticket so that the incorrect link issue will be fixed soon by their developer.
