How solve cannot move directory for WebStorm on WSL?

I work with the Angular project on Windows 10 under WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux, Ubuntu 18.04). All work's like a charm, but I can't delete or refactor (move) any directory. With files this works fine, but not for directories.

I think problems with permissions for my filesystem, but can't understand how I can fix it. Any know how I can solve it? Refactoring so needed future :)

update: After start command in Linux console, like ng serve - refactoring has broken. After restart OS - all work's fine.

update: Issue in WebStorm tracker https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-34797

Solution

  • It seems like WSL blocking problem, not a Webstorm bug.
