I just really wanted to thank you. Your post was tremendously helpful because it solved a WSL problem that I've been working on for two days. I was getting very strange errors from xfce4 and xrdp (no DISPLAY, no console, etc.), and read through hours' worth of posts, and nothing solved my problem. I reinstalled WSL2 about 7 times, with different attempts, the problem remained. The changes to the xrdp.ini script that you mentioned both solved the issue AND allows me to use localhost to RDP into WSL2 (I certainly was tired of changing the RDP IP almost daily). Can't get better than that. I owe you cofee!!

I'm really happy to read that my article was able to help you solve the problem, I know the feeling of being stuck with such things and searching for days too well :)
