Change default pdf viewer in WSL2

Question

I am using WSL2 Ubuntu 20.04 inside Windows 10. xdg-open currently opens something called gv: as the default pdf viewer. I would like to use zathura. I couldn't find any .desktop files in the WSL2 environment. How do I change the default viewer for PDF files?

Answer 1

I was able to make Zathura the default PDF viewer using the documentation here.
