Hi Jay!
Agreed, one can spend many hours trying to figure out the root cause of why certain things happen. In the end I found a "solution". Within the /mnt/c/ folder I rm -rf the original rails folder and then ran, "mkdir rails_sites, rails new....etc" and by deleting the old dir and creating a new one seems to have worked for the time being. It is strange this is the first time I have had any issues with the linux subsystem. Besides this minor hiccup I have really enjoyed it. I will update if I find anything else.

Hey all,
So I got this running a long time ago and haven't had any issues since but now when I run any rails command I get a warning that says:
/home/user/.rbenv/versions 2.5.3/lib/ruby/gems/2.5.0/gems/railities-5.2.2/lib/rails/app_loader.rb:53 warning: Insecurable world writeable dir mnt/c/rails/project

All the stackoverflow answers are to chmod go-w /home/user but this and many derivations of this doesn't work. What else can I try?
