My theme hot-reload is not working in the new cli. I used to use the old cli with the --poll flag, but this is not available anymore in the new shopify cli, and after updating it is not picking up on any changes in the folder.
I use: shopify theme dev
hot-reload should be the default, but also with the flag --live-reload full-page (or hot-reload) it is not picking up on any changes in css or liquid files. Only when I exit and start again 'shopify theme dev' it picks up on the changes.
I use:
Windows 10 Pro
WSL version: 2.3.26.0
Npm 10.9.2
@Shopify/cli/3.74.0 wsl-x64 node-v23.6.1
When I moved the project to my home folder in WSL it does work.
There must be a problem reading from the NTFS disk and picking up changes.
