My notebook abruptly went into bluescreen while having vscode with the WSL open.

Got the BIOS message saying my HD got problems and it was being repaired.

When I got back, I tried to open WSL and got the following message;

Expected Behavior

WSL to start

Actual Behavior

I get error and it wont open

Diagnostic Logs

I have tried following these instructions, but I can't perform wsl.exe lsblk and after I mount the vhd using the mount flag, I get an error saying the file is being used by another process Wsl/Service/AttachDisk/MountVhd/HCS/ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION.

I had a project with commits that I didn't push, so I really need to get the files back,

Thanks.

The logs shows that a disk mount error occured. Try to follow these repair instructions and see if that solves the issue.

@arthurmluz: This might be because the disk was in use by WSL. Can you try to run wsl --shutdownbecause trying to mount the disk ?
