Hello @Shiv2116
the reason is because the communication between the folder paths form WSL and Windows is tricky, and also slower.
I just Highly recommend you to keep your project folders on your WSL instance, if you are not familiarized with UNIX command lines use this as reference:

  1. mkdir to create a new folder.
  2. cd to navigate between folders.
  3. ls to see the contents of a folder.

so for example you can open the WSL terminal, create a folder for your project mkdir folderName, then navigate to it cd folderName, and finally open vscode inside of it using code ..
