The disk \\.\physicaldrive1 was attached from WSL2, but failed to mount (error code: -22)

Question

Environment: Build: 21343 Ubuntu 20.04 WSL2

Currently attempting to mount an ext4 drive via WSL2 and keep receiving error:

The disk \\.\physicaldrive1 was attached from WSL2, but failed to mount (error code: -22)

While running the following command: wsl --mount \\.\physicaldrive1

Not sure what other information is needed, fairly new to linux and mounting drives.

Thanks.

add the partition on the drive you want to mount what ever number it may be eg.

wsl --mount \\.\physicaldrive1 --partition 1
