                Fix "Cannot make directory '/run/screen': Permission denied" error
              
          
        
      
        
  
      
    I applied permission to /run/screen folder but every restart requires this fix.
So I change the SCREENDIR to home folder.
To fix for all users at WSL run below command.
echo 'export SCREENDIR="$HOME/.screen"'
if you start screen outside of bash like command line or scheduled task run with environment variables.
C:\Users\ahmet&gt;bash -c 'SCREENDIR=$HOME/.screen screen'
