Windows Terminal version

1.15.2002.0

Windows build number

10.0.19043.0

Other Software

Not relevant.

Steps to reproduce

Not a 100% reproducible case, but happens fairly often enough (90%?). There might be some unnecessary steps here, I tried to eliminate as many as possible. This is after a fresh install, no settings changed yet.

  1. Open Windows Terminal preview
  2. Open Settings
  3. Close tab with whatever the default profile is
  4. Only have the Settings tab left
  5. Select Defaults
  6. Scroll down so that the view pane with options is fully scrolled up (Appearance and Advanced are visible).
  7. (Unsure: might need to hover over Appearance and Advanced so that they have been lit up)
  8. Close Settings by clicking the x icon on the tab

Expected Behavior

Windows Terminal closes.

Actual Behavior

Windows Terminal crashes with an Unhandled exception thrown: read access violation. **_Right** was 0x23EA8E61000. First entry on the stack is Windows.UI.Xaml.dll!std::pair<void *,ctl::WeakRefPtr>::operator=<std::pair<void *,ctl::WeakRefPtr>,0>(std::pair<void *,ctl::WeakRefPtr> && _Right) Line 198, which is the destructor for AnimatedIcon() in AnimatedIcon.h

AnimatedIconProperties is shown as {...}.

Disassembly of the stack frame:

            int> = 0>
    constexpr pair(_Other1&& _Val1, _Other2&& _Val2) noexcept(
        is_nothrow_constructible_v<_Ty1, _Other1>&& is_nothrow_constructible_v<_Ty2, _Other2>) // strengthened
00007FFAFEFDDA86  mov         rax,qword ptr [rdx]

I would love to give a Feedback Hub link, but Feedback Hub today suddenly decided that, when pressing Start recording: We couldn't start the recording. Please select Start recoding to try again. And given that no clear indication is given what is going on, I cannot do much to fix this.

Edit addendum: a quick animated GIF illustrating the problem:
