@therealdb What is the difference between Windows Terminal and PowerShell? Are you suggesting that I type my commands into Terminal instead of Ubuntu Bash?
It's a multi-window terminal. No differences, besides side-by-side window, colors, and much more.

That's a really good suggestion.
-
Yes, multiple times. Like, multi multi times.
-
Have you tried Alpine, next? We seem to have two examples of that working already...
...although I do still wonder whether if isn’t a more fundamental Windows issue, but it would be good to try.

@akbooer Sorry... I'm just kind of at the end of my rope here, other stuff included. My apologies.
So please explain to me how I misspelled openLuup when I've been meticulously spelling it over and over like literally hundreds of times in the last week or two. I must be losing it. Perhaps a sign for me to take up another hobby? -
ah shit. I see it now.
Think I'm just worn down at this point. That''s embarrassing. -

No, that's fine. Quite understand.
This has not gone smoothly for you, despite others chipping in to try and help.
If you want to leave it here, that's OK, of course. If you want to come back to it on a better day, then just ask.
Good luck.

I'm not an idiot, and I've installed and worked on several complicated systems, both hard and software related, but it seems that I have some sort of technological curse. I'm not even kidding -- I can follow directions to the tee without a single deviation, it will fuck up. Ok, so I misspelled "openLuup" once, but I assure you, I've been super attentive to every instruction and somehow things just aren't gelling. I understand case-sensitive commands, etc.
I wish I were a Linux nerd. Too bad gaming pulled me into Micro$oft Winblows as a kid. It is what it is.
So, I've literally followed "the idiot proof" instructions, changed my Linux distribution according to instruction, reinstalled multiple times, ... I guess that's it then?
I'm sorry for taking up so much of you guys' time. -
Well, OK. Sorry for taking your time...
...but I did think it was worth one last time with Alpine:

I had no idea you had put so much effort into this. I'll give it one last try.
You didn't take my time -- I took my own. We were trying something unconventional and I knew that even before attempting this, so don't worry about it. Sorry if I was snarky but it seems like everything I've been trying relating to HA in the last year or so has gone dreadfully wrong.
I'll try it out when I feel up to it and let you know how things go.
Thanks -

As I said, I'm runing openLuup in WSL since 2+ years. It's my development instance. So, nothing really unconventional, because it's a linux VM, after all.

Well, that may be true for you, but as we've seen with the Cyberpunk 2077 launch, different systems seem to yield different results.
