i have ubuntu installed on an ssd, that ssd also has a windows install that i use for my laptopsince i have both os'es on the same drive i can switch between them instantly without needing to plug in a separate drive or usbthe issue is that sometimes i have stuff on my linux install that i end up needing to access from inside windows, i know i can use certain programs to read and write from ext4 filesystems but using the command line is more convenient for me since most of the time i'm already tryingmy question is, using windows subsystem for linux, can i mount the partition for my ubuntu install inside it so that i can then access the files inside?i've already tried the regular methods for mounting external drives inside wsl but get some errors that i'm not sure how to deal with
