Codex App on Windows, when configured to use WSL, continues to reference the Windows-hosted config.toml #13549

Description

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.304.1528.0

What subscription do you have?

Plus for Teams

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64

What issue are you seeing?

Despite configuring Codex App to use WSL (for both the Agent environment and Integrated terminal shell) and restarting the application, the issue persists. When navigating to Configuration and clicking 'Open config.toml in WSL environment', the app still opens the Windows config.toml instead of the one configured within WSL.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Steps taken:

  1. Set Agent environment and Integrated terminal shell to WSL.
  2. Restarted Codex App.
  3. Clicked 'Open config.toml in WSL environment' in the Configuration section.

Result: The Windows config.toml opens instead of the WSL-resident file.

What is the expected behavior?

When WSL is selected, the app should point to the config file located at /home/my_user/.codex/config.toml (WSL) instead of C:\Users\my_user\.codex\config.toml (Windows).
