Python’s webbrowser module (as of 3.10) cannot correctly launch an HTML file from inside WSL. python/cpython#89752

Nothing much we can do here (short of coming up with a fix for CPython), but something to keep in mind when someone else fails to run an example.

As a workaround, you can always launch the HTML file manually with /mnt/c/Windows/explorer.exe <path/to/html> (replace c with wherever your Windows system drive is).
