Windows Terminal version

Windows build number

10

No response

Steps to reproduce

wt -v in Terminal Preview

In hindsight this could be expected, but the bug report template suggest to run wt -v to get the version..

If you've got both Terminal (stable) and Terminal Preview installed, wt.exe can unfortunately only point at one of them. Which one is determined by the OS, in the "App execution aliases" page of the settings app:

I bet that wt is set up to point at the Stable one, not the Preview one.

Sure, so maybe the gh issue template should mention this.
