I have a SSD in which I installed Ubuntu 20.04. But I could no longer use the SSD. More details here: Ubuntu is freezing (even in live session)
Now I bought a SATA to USB A cable. Now, how do I copy paste files from the SSD to my Windows 10 laptop using WSL?
I was trying these instructions: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/wsl/wsl2-mount-disk
But wsl --mount <DiskPath> did not work.
