I am using Windows 10, and I was able to get WSL and BUDA runner to work without hanging up BOINC with the latest development release 8.2.7. However, is there a way to shut down the WSL wrapper?
The reason I am asking is I tried doing a clean install of BOINC. One of the last steps in the test is to remove the temporary data directory. I close down BOINC Manager, including the Client, but Windows says I cannot delete the directory because it is in use. I don't see any other programs using this directory, so I rebooted, closed down Manager/Client after the reboot, and the same issue occured.
Since WSL is new to this computer, I suspect it is still running and has access to this folder. To test this, I want to quit WSL, but I don't see a clear way how to do that.
Please feel free to move this to a different category. I'm not sure if I'm asking a question, reporting a bug, or asking for a feature (maybe all three!)
