Originally created by @Wuhao1627003 on GitHub (Feb 5, 2023).

Windows Terminal version

1.16.10262, 10232, WTP 1.17.1023

Windows build number

10.0.25290.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

Launch Terminal through either start menu or C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_1.16.10232.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe (normal & elevated) will show a window, then crash immediately.
image
After re-installing the software, the first launch works as expected, but all subsequent launches crash. Tasks I tried include pwsh, pwsh preview, command prompt, Az cloud shell.
In Task Manager, the process WindowsTerminal.exe also disappears.
This only happened in lastest Windows build, no problem before.

Expected Behavior

Normal run of WT, loading my tasks like pwsh, waiting for user input

Actual Behavior

Window shows up with no running of pwsh, can't input, and immediately crash.

Could you share your settings.json file/?

Does something like wt sp ; sp -- cmd.exe work?

If WT is truly crashing, then grabbing a /feedback hub trace might help grab the stack...
