Describe the bug
If the User folder name has a space, both the starting of the X-Server as well as the Start Menu entries don't work.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Have User folder with space, e.g. "Name Name"
  2. Install Pengwin
  3. Setup GUI in pengwin-setup
  4. Restart pengwin, or try launching the start menu entries, e.g. Konsole.

Expected behavior
Should work as expected, start X-Server, or launch App, e.g. Konsole.

Additional context
In /etc/profile.d/vcxsrv.sh this "C:\Users\Name Name.vcxsrv\vcxsrv.exe" is not quoted properly.
As well as in the shortcuts this "%USERPROFILE%\wslu\runHidden.vbs" which expands into "C:\Users\Name Name\wslu\runHidden.vbs".

Basic Troubleshooting Checklist

[x] I have searched Google for the error message.
[x] I have checked official WSL troubleshooting documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/troubleshooting#confirm-wsl-is-enabled.
[x] I have searched the official Microsoft WSL issues page: https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues.
[x] I have searched the Pengwin issues page: https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/Pengwin/issues.
[x] I have run Windows 10 updates and restarted.
[x] I have restarted WSL service: wsl.exe --terminate WLinux wsl.exe --shutdown.
