This looks it might be the same thing as #11017.

This is wild that we got the same report 3 times in a week. @scorchgid what font are you using in the Terminal? What DPI scaling? Also, which Terminal version are you using?

Hi @zadjii-msft apologise I lost the link to this issue but found it again/
To answer your question the font isn't set to anything. See the image. changing it to a font fixes this but it's weird why this is occuring.

@scorchgid There's more info in #11032 - looks like this might be a busted MSIX install, where it didn't deploy the font correctly. I'm betting that repairing the app might just do the trick, or worst case setting the font to something else.
