Warp-terminal signup doesn't work on Win 10 + WSL2 + Ubuntu

Hi @format997 sorry about this blocker. Please note that the default copy/paste shortcuts on Linux (wsl included) is SHIFT-CTRL-C/V. Also I recommend you install firefox or chrome on the WSL VM as this may help with the copy/paste of the auth token. As a possible workaround if the normal copy/paste doesn't work, a user on the WSL thread noted they were able to use an autohotkey script to enter the auth key.

Please let us know if that helps as manually typing in the auth key is not ideal.

Hey Danny!

Thanks for the response!

You know, so far, I haven't been able to even get to the point where it prompts me to put in the auth key. On windows 11 it will, which is why I can use warp terminal on W11 + WSL2 + U22, but apparently not on Windows 11.

After I click "sign in", I do get a browser tab to pop open on my Win 10 machine. I can sign in there, but the button won't take me back to the warp terminal window that opened. In fact, the "sign up"/"sign in" buttons are no longer clickable at this point. So, if that makes sense, it feels almost like the "sign-up"/"sign-in" window becomes unresponsive after I first click a button, and the the screen doesn't progress to the point where I am offered the option to put in an Auth key.

The terminal output at this point looks like this:
18:09:08 [INFO] dispatching typed action: Login
18:09:08 [INFO] Failed to open url with wslview Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" }, falling back to another method

18:09:23 [INFO] dispatching global action for workspace:save_app
18:09:23 [WARN] Failed to record time "sample value too large"

On a win 11 box, which does progress me to the screen where I can manually input the auth code, after I click to "sign in", the output of the warp terminal looks like this:
18:05:09 [INFO] dispatching typed action: Login
18:05:09 [INFO] Failed to open url with wslview Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" }, falling back to another method

18:05:12 [INFO] dispatching global action for root_view:update_quake_mode_state
18:05:12 [INFO] dispatching global action for workspace:save_app

I've also tried install firefox on the W10 U22 VM, and it still tries to drop me back into the W10 firefox browser to try and sign in. So, that didn't seem to help. Maybe there is a way to get warp-terminal to open firefox as installed on the WSL VM?

Anyway, let me know if any of the extra information helps suggest the issue or a workaround.

hey folks, I was able to test this issue on WSL2 Ubuntu Windows 11, and I noticed the Windows browser opens, but I can still copy/paste the auth token into Warp running in WSL. Please note that CTRL-SHIFT-C/V are the default copy/paste shortcuts for Warp in Linux/WSL (but CTRL-C/V should still work in the auth token menu).

If you're still seeing the issue on the latest version of Warp, please provide a video to help us understand where it may be failing.
