Start WSL Ubuntu in specific or current folder on Windows

When installing Subsystem for Linux and Ubuntu from store on his development machine I can switch (or start) to Ubuntu shell by simply

But the Ubuntu shell start in /home/techsupp folder by default. Is it possible to force it to start in same folder than the one I use my Ubuntu command?

So in my example I should be in

/mnt/h

Thank you.

What I already tried:

H:\>ubuntu help
Launches or configures a linux distribution.

Usage:
    <no args>
      - Launches the distro's default behavior. By default, this launches your default shell.

    run <command line>
      - Run the given command line in that distro, using the default configuration.
      - Everything after `run ` is passed to the linux LaunchProcess call.

    config [setting [value]]
      - Configure certain settings for this distro.
      - Settings are any of the following (by default)
        - `--default-user <username>`: Set the default user for this distro to <username>

    clean
      - Uninstalls the distro. The appx remains on your machine. This can be
        useful for "factory resetting" your instance. This removes the linux
        filesystem from the disk, but not the app from your PC, so you don't
        need to redownload the entire tar.gz again.

    help
      - Print this usage message.

I'm on Windows 10 Home with May Update and have Ubuntu 18.04 for WSL installed, I can open the console in any folder with Shift + Right Click and selecting the Open Linux shell here option

If you check in Task Manager how the explorer "Open Linux shell here" option opens wsl, you can see that there's a "--cd" option.

ubuntu run

run <command line>
   Run the provided command line in the current working directory. If no
   command line is provided, the default shell is launched.

As far as I can tell the effect is the same as running ubuntu, except that it starts in the current directory.

This command works even as a right click open here command in explorer. Adapting from this article:

• RegEdit to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell and create a new key
• edit (Default) to "Open Ubuntu here" or similar.
• add a key named command
• edit (Default) to ubuntu run

Now you have a functional "Open Ubuntu here" right click menu in explorer.

The problem I have with wsl is that the wsl bash window doesn't have the Ubuntu icon, even if it starts the Ubuntu distribution.

If you use wsl.exe, it will start WSL in current directory. But the difference between wsl and ubuntu is that if you have installed two or more distros (e,g, Ubuntu and Fedora), the default one will get started. You can set the default to Ubuntu by running wslconfig /setdefault Ubuntu.
