NordVPN + Windows Subsystems for Linux starts with: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket.

 Is your Windows Subsystems for Linux suddenly starting with the error message: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket?







I have tried a few workarounds, but this problem still persists for me after I reboot.  I've found the cheapest solution is to pause NordVPN's connection for a minute, start the WSL shell, and then activate your VPN tunnel again.    Maybe when I'm really bored I  will really dig into fixing this permanently, but it is just a minor nuisance at this point.
