I'm not familiar with ROS, but I've installed Webots on wsl like you without issue. Did you install it through the apt package manager ?

I am following the official tutorial I tried both the apt and source file, they all fail in this step. Did you also use WSL2 for installation?

How does your WEBOTS_HOME look like? because it looks for me as if you were pointing to the installer but not to the installed application.
