Things look generally OK in this log file. What I see is that the Desktop app get to the point where it is waiting for the workbench server backend to start up in install mode, and it never does. You can look in the NVIDIA-Workbench WSL distro under /home/workbench/.nvwb/logs/workbench.log to see if there is an error reported there. This is the server’s log file: Logging - NVIDIA Docs
