lxrun does not seem to be used in this process so....
what I did to make it work, in utils.py ->probe_wsl fucntion, comment out the sys.exit(-1) when it checks lxpath. (I left the print there)
Also I had to modify the bashpath in the same function to point to my WinSxS->amd64_microsoft-windows-lxss-bash_31bf3856ad364e35_10.0.#### version.

if I run the debian app i dont get bash, I really need to run bash in cmd for it to work.

hope this helps.

p.s. this is not a fix, just a dumb work around...

lxrun was deprecated and then removed in the newer versions of wsl. This project relies on that executable.

So this project doesnt support WSL 2, right?
