How to fix IntelliJ Idea stuck on "Preparing WSL build environment..."?

Time:11-16

I am using Ubuntu 22.04 with windows WSL, and have installed JDK 19.01 and Maven inside this, and have imported a file from the WSL into IntelliJ Idea to work on, however once I run a class, IntelliJ "builds" for upwards of half an hour, hanging on the messages of "Executing pre-compile tasks..." and "Preparing WSL build environment...". Obviously this is a pain and I need to know how to fix it.

IntelliJ version 2022.2.3 (image)

I've tried to reinstall my JDK in Ubuntu and set the JAVA_HOME variable, which I've checked and have no issues with. I've tried to reinstall IntelliJ, and disabled my firewall/made exceptions, and I've changed the SDK being used inside IntelliJ, all to no success.

Here are logs from inside the Ubuntu terminal showing my JDK and Maven installations:

user@user  \~  mvn -v
