I'm using a fresh install of Kali 2021.2 on VirtualBox 6.1. I'm new to Linux.

I enter the 'scan' command in lscrpt.

Scan hangs on the message 'Scanning, please wait....' in the terminal window.

I have to enter Ctrl-C to exit, and I get:

cat: /root/lscript/tempscan.txt: No such file or directory
cat: /root/lscript/tempscan.txt: No such file or directory
No hosts found
Press any key to go back...

After exiting scan, lscript fails to locate wlan0 or wlan0mon, despite output from 'ip a' below.

The expected behavior is to see the scanning taking place.

Output of cat /etc/os-release
