      Actual Results

      Users of Realm Studio experience an exception from Core when opening a Realm file stored on the Windows Subsystem for Linux file system:

      LockFileEx() failed: Incorrect function

      This is most likely related to WSL's lack of support for the LockFileEx system call.
