Originally created by @joltar on GitHub (Sep 22, 2020).

I would like to open Win 10 Ubuntu each time I open the terminal. The default semms to be to open Windows PowerShell. I can add Ubuntu 20.04 root by using the down arrow, so I am able to switch from one to the other. Wonderful!

But when I try to open the "options", if I click on the symbol, The photo editing program , Affinity Photo, opens. And the shortcut, Ctrl +, does not do anything

Environment

Windows build number: [run `[Environment]::OSVersion` for powershell, or `ver` for cmd]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable):1.2.2.381.0 Win 10 

Any other software? I have Vivaldi Browser open, and Win 10 64 bit build 18363. and Xming X server running.

Steps to reproduce

Expected behavior

I expect a menu of options to open.

Actual behavior: Affinity Photo opens. Or nothing opens, if I try the shortcut keys combination, Ctrl+.

I am unsure. Terminal works brilliantly otherwise.
