'Error message trying to visit minikube service via NodePort "Because you are using a Docker driver on linux, the terminal needs to be open to run it""

On Windows 11 Home, Docker Desktop

I am trying to learn Kubernetes and was trying out step 4 of this tutorial https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/ingress-minikube/ I got this error and don't know what terminal it is referring to.

me@DESKTOP:/mnt/c/kubernetes-tutorial$ minikube service web --url
❗  Because you are using a Docker driver on linux, the terminal needs to be open to run it.

I opened Docker desktop and went to the minikube that is running and opened the CLI terminal and ran the command again, but it failed: I saw this similar qs on SO but it appears to be a different issue.
