Set useTabSwitcher to false if you don’t want the new tab switcher experience.

(This is called out in the release notes, which are handcrafted for every single release so preview users know what they are previewing.)

The documentation and the release notes give contradictory information.

It would be helpful if you would point out how they are contradictory! That’s the only way we’ll be able to fix it...

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/customize-settings/key-bindings ("Tab Search (Preview)" section) says tabSearch is not bound.

https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/releases says it's bound to nextTab and prevTab.

I mean... the release notes say that next/prevTab will now display an ephemeral tab switching UI. They also go on to say that there is a separate action, tabSearch, that can be bound. The binding hasn’t changed, and they do not open tabSearch.

(The ephemeral tab switching UI and the tab search feature use the same list, but they are intentionally distinct UI surfaces.)
