Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.19041.0
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 1.4.3243.0

Any other software? N/A

Steps to reproduce

Tried these steps with and without tabs. Same result.

  1. Open Terminal
  2. Move Terminal window to a different place in desktop than it was when it opened
  3. Close Terminal
  4. Re-open Terminal

Expected behavior

When Terminal is re-opened, it should re-open at the exact same coordinates it was at when I closed it.

Actual behavior

It opens at the very top-left of my screen - which on a 4k monitor is fairly annoying.

I know where I want Terminal placed. It should not argue with my opinion.
