We're still actively investigating this, but I this seems real.

May be related to the following error message being logged

c:\users\migrie\dev\private\openconsole\src\cascadia\terminalapp\cascadiasettingsserialization.cpp(265)\TerminalApp.dll!00007FFEB9122BC4: (caller: 00007FFEB9121641) LogHr(1) tid(66a8) 80070020 The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
    [TerminalApp::CascadiaSettings::_ReadSettings]

Possibly related to #1293 but we're unsure how that could be it

@zadjii-msft commented on GitHub (Jun 19, 2019):

This definitely repros with a single terminal window open.

In CascadiaSettings::_ReadSettings, when we attempt to read the file, we fail to open the file for reading. CreateFile fails with GLE=0x80070020, which is ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION.

It probably also fails with many terminals.

It probably _also_ fails with _many_ terminals.
