wtf is a dev drive?

wsl what?

you mean putty?

wsl what??

WSL is inherently flawed because it isn't fully integrated with the kernel. WSL is literally an abstraction layer of linux that sits on top of the existing windows device. it's no better than cygwin. microslop developed a way to run VMs and mount the whole c drive inside it, that's WSL in a nutshell.

after doing some light research, it seems a dev drive is just a special file mount inside the linux abstraction layer.

all I can say...
