How can I access the ArchWSL /home/myUser from a dual boot?

[lucasrdrgs]

I can mount my Windows partition when I'm in Linux (I use Arch). However, I have some files in my Windows ArchWSL installation that I would like to transfer to the Linux partition. How can I do so from the Linux terminal? Where are those files located, assuming \\wsl$ wont work since I'm not on Windows?

Hi @lucasrdrgs
ArchWSL's root file system is located in ext4.vhdx.
If you are using AppX, it's in C:\Users\{Your-User-Name}\AppData\Local\Packages\yuk7.archwsl_35zwpb4sx6e50\LocalState.

You can use ndb and qemu-ndb on native Linux to recognize it as a block device.

sudo qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 ext4.vhdx

and you can mount it as ext4 partition

mount -o ro,nouser /dev/nbd0 /mnt/mountpoint
