Cannot access WSL2 files in Win11 explorer after privilege escalation

[Forsworns]

I worked on Win11 with WSL2.

Problem

I edited the /etc/passwd file for privilege escalation, changed the user id and group id of my default user kyrie to 0. That is, each time I open a new windows terminal, I can use sudo -i -u kyrie to launch as user kyrie with full root privileges.

Everything seems working well, except that I cannot visit WSL2 file system from Windows explorer anymore. It reminded me that the address is invalid, and the Windows user is not permitted to visit it.

• Is this problem expected?
• Why does user privilege escalation in WSL2 lead to restrictions on Windows user?
