So I just tried this myself.
Add this to your /etc/wsl.conf
inside your distro:
[user]
default=YOUR_USERNAME
Then exit WSL, terminate your distro (wsl -t YOUR_DISTRO
) and start it again.
from move-wsl.
@th14go Not sure if I understood correctly. After moving the distro your default user was lost and root used instead? You can set your default user with debian config --default-user USERNAME
. Does that fix it for you?
Apparently this is the normal behaviour of the wsl command. You can try setting your default user in wsl.conf like suggested here: microsoft/WSL#3974 (comment)
from move-wsl.
@th14go You probably should set up wsl.conf. Does the same, but is more bulletproof.

@pxlrbt I understand, I already made this configuration as you said.
from move-wsl.
that's it buddy, it worked, with the command you gave (debian config --default-user USERNAME) . Perfect thank you @pxlrbt
