<3>WSL (358) ERROR: CreateProcessParseCommon:789: Failed to translate Z:/

I am having some problems using Windows Subsystem for Linux (Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS). I need to access a folder I have accessed locally by mapping a network drive.

I have installed both WSL and Ubuntu from the Microsoft App Store. I have been using this system for months and never encountered a problem.

Since yesterday, when trying to open a Linux terminal for the folder in the drive I mapped, I get this error:

<3>WSL (358) ERROR: CreateProcessParseCommon:789: Failed to translate Z:/

I do not encounter the same problem when opening a Linux Terminal in any other folder such as Desktop, or anything local.

I am not familiar with these kinds of errors, so anything to try would help a lot.
