Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)

1.6.10571.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

  • Open a bunch of tabs in terminal + customize them by splitting pane
  • Install anything that updates system environment variables
  • Launch a new tab

PS: In my case I had to install Cuda stuff that updates environment variables required by tensorflow gpu libs

Expected Behavior

The new tabs / panes should have the update environment variables

Actual Behavior

I have to kill all existing tabs and restart terminal
