Folder Copied/Moved/Extracted externally without using Ubuntu Terminal, is not detected/accessed later in ubuntu terminal

With help of Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) I installed Ubuntu Terminal on Windows 10.

Current Work directory in windows: E:\projects.

Work directory in where the WSL Ubuntu system is installed:

C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Packages\CanonicalGroupLimited.UbuntuonWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\LocalState\rootfs\home\USER

I was trying to transfer some of my previous work from windows environment to Ubuntu. I copied all the folders to \home\USER\work. But I'm not able to access that using ls command in Ubuntu terminal.

Please see below images.

Here is folder from windows environment:

Copied to Ubuntu workspace:

Tried to access using Ubuntu Terminal:

But unable to access that xyz folder.
