About

WSLPad is a Windows tray companion that makes hidden WSL state visible. It includes a dashboard, a dual-pane Windows and WSL file explorer, an interactive terminal, a step-by-step VHDX relocation wizard, and a read-only MCP server. Recovery commands are prepared for review and are never run automatically.
