Actually the workaround of using Cygwin does not quite work. I get issues with this saving files:

■  Warning (unlock-file): Unlocking file: Invalid argument, //wsl.localhost/Ubuntu-22.04/home/brucea/foobar, ignored

This is a problem many users have reported, that arises from a bug within the WSL X server's treatment of key press and repeat events.
It is not within our power to fix it; use the Cygwin or MS Windows builds instead.
