Hi. I'm absolutely new in this and followed your instructions step by step.
The last line of the process shows:
Starting Remote Protocol server [OK]
However, trying to access my Localhost:3390 (or through my local IP address) returns an ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED error on Chrome ver. 84.0.4147.105
or
on Firefox ver. 79.0, a blank page with some special characters on it.
(Win 10 PRO / 2004)
Could you please help me?
Many thanks in advance! (sorry if this comment is displayed twice)

Hey neuquenfr, the port 3390 is the port for RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) connection so you should use remote desktop to connect to your desktop environment within the WSL.
You can't use a Browser for that.
One way would be to search for mstsc in Cortana or the start menu and connect with this.
