Ever since I came home from college, I can no longer open a remote wsl window in vscode and I am not sure what is the cause of the issue.
When running 'code .' I get the following error message:
`Updating VS Code Server to version da15b6fd3ef856477bf6f4fb29ba1b7af717770d
Removing previous installation...
Installing VS Code Server for x64 (da15b6fd3ef856477bf6f4fb29ba1b7af717770d)

tar is unable to read /home/noah/.vscode-server/bin/da15b6fd3ef856477bf6f4fb29ba1b7af717770d-1652464172.tar.gz. Either the file is corrupt or tar has an issue.`
I am not really sure what could be causing this.
I am on Windows 11 using wsl1. Everything is fully updated.
