Is there a way to config wsl's folder path

[Enter feedback here]

in this part, it is recomend to store file in linux system for better performance when using wsl2.

While the default wsl folder is located at C disk. And I've installed 2 windows 10 system on my laptop. So if I clone a repo in system A and store it insidel wsl folder（such as /mnt/wsl）, it's hard to access and using the repo I've cloned in system A when I am using system B.

Maybe it's a good idea to support config my wsl path on other disk like D disk, so that I just need to clone once and be able to use the same repo file in different win10 system.

You can install/register a GNU/Linux distribution for WSL in another drive/partition using wsl --import command. Alternatively, it is also possible to mount the VHDX file from another drive/partition in a running WSL2 instance.

Thanks and I'll try it after reading docs.

This would be a feature request, could you please file this as a feature request on the WSL github repo? https://github.com/microsoft/wsl

I'll close this issue out as this repo is just for tracking docs related issues and this is product related.
