How did you install the Terminal? From the store, from choco/scoop/winget? directly from the Releases page?

Could you share a screenshot of that dialog? I don't think I've ever seen such a dialog, and E_ABORT is a totally useless error code 😑

This is going to sound like a very "Windows user" thing to ask, but . . . what if you reboot your machine?

Also, what build of Windows are you on?

That's so bizarre - the OS clearly thinks the app is in use, but presumably, after a reboot, it definitely wouldn't be.

If you go to the Settings app, then go to Apps, does the Terminal appear in that list at all? If so, you might be able to fix this by going to Advanced Options, then hit "Repair"

How about startup apps (TaskMgr, startup tab). It's in there (disabled here).
