Having a problem when creating a new Nios ii Application and BSP from template

Question

I am following the simple hello world tutorial for my DE0-nano. I am able to select the proper SOPC information file, and cpu. However when clicking finish I get the error:

Failed to execute: wsl dos2unix create-this-bsp;

./create-this-bsp --cpu-name --no-make

I was wondering if anyone had some insight to the source of the error? thanks

There is a, since 2 month, a well known problem with detailed description of the issue with later windows updates and wsl in combination with quartus, see
https://community.intel.com/t5/Nios-II-Embedded-Design-Suite/Error-s0-Error-during-execution-of-quot-C-intelfpga-20-1-quartus/m-p/1207193#M50127
It have been assured that people are working this since early July.
Unless programmers at Intel have 2 months forced vacation it must be a extremely difficult problem that uses almost all resources, working 24h on this.

Hi,

May I know the version for Nios II Eclipse software used?

May I know do you follow the user guide as document below:

Hi
I have had to support shipping equipment and have not had the time to be able to wait for a solution or experiment to find a work around. I have needed to roll back to 18.1 Build 625 to find a version where it is possible to use the NIOS II tool chain fully.
Every release from Q18.1 update 1 to date appears to have a problem with the NIOS II tool chain.
I am struggling to understand why this appears to be a recurring problem.
Regards
Simon

Hello, I am attempting the same tutorial and getting exactly the same error. 
I have seen various suggestions to fix it on the web, but noe of them worked for me.
Is there a proper fix for this problem?
I am using Quartus II 20.1 Lite, and the recommended version of Eclipse.

Thanks,

Daniel.
