Description
We rebranded WLinux to Pengwin.
We maintained the WLinux name in the WSL API 1 in order to avoid breakage 2.
However this means Pengwin still appears as \WSL$\WLinux in Explorer.
It also means Pengwin appears as WLinux in the new Terminal application.
We could issue a new package of Pengwin in the Store with the new name in the API, offering it for free to everyone who has bought the old Pengwin, but it would mean a lot of links to the old package would break and would cause user confusion.
If down the line it becomes possible to rename WSL distros or identify them with a specific UUID and string that can change, it would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
