Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

  • open WLS2 / ubuntu terminal
  • open a folder in vscode ( code ~/micropython )
  • Zephyr IDE > Open setup Panel
  • Host tools shows Linux - but proposed to install tooling via winget

Possibly the extension does not deal correctly with remote development or mixes up the local host OS with the remote host OS.

In my case:

  • Host OS : Windows 11
  • Remote OS : WSL2/Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
