This is a limitation of WSL and it is expected. when running the shortcut, it will use your Windows X server(X410, VcXsrv, Xming, etc) to create a separate window for displaying the Linux app. Since it is displaying in another app, the window for displaying app will be separated from the original shortcut.

I am unable to update and access.patrickwu.space is not accessible. What happened?

the package has moved to a new location https://pkg.wslutiliti.es/open in new window that do not relies on my personal website.
