You'll need to change your PyCharm project interpreter settings to use a local Python environment instead of WSL.

Follow these steps:

• Open PyCharm Settings/Preferences
• Go to Project → Python Interpreter
• Click the gear icon → Add
• Choose "System Interpreter" or "Virtualenv Environment" instead of "WSL"
• Select your local Python installation or create a new virtualenv

This will prevent PyCharm from automatically starting WSL when opening projects.
