No. CMD, PS5.1 and PS7.2 start inside old console when launched from Start or Win+R. This is the HKCU_Console on my current setup:

Do you have the VC Redistributable installed? This sounds like this thread: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/11529#issuecomment-948649578, which also is covered in the FAQsle-window-instead

@zadjii-msft you're correct. Adding latest VC_redist.x64 did fix the issue. After OS installation only WT, Firefox and Git were added and none of them pulled in a VC Redistributable package. Thanks for the tip!
