Hey @mathew-dennis, thanks for the report! This is a browser limitation, not a Phoenix bug. Edge/Chrome can't reliably save to WSL folders (\\wsl$\...), so the save fails.

For now, please use the Phoenix Code desktop app, which works fine with WSL. We'll try to show a clearer error for this in an upcoming release. Apologies for the trouble!

@devvaannsh thank you for the quick response. will give the desktop app a try.

hi @abose, how are you doing. I am using phoenix to do my MCA project. The new features look impressive :-) .
