Originally created by @JVimes on GitHub (Jun 6, 2023).

Windows Terminal version

1.18.1462.0

Windows build number

10.0.19045.0

Other Software

Visual Studio 17.7.0 Preview 1.0

Steps to reproduce

  1. Select "Windows Terminal" for "Default terminal application" under Startup.
  2. Set "windowingBehavior": "useAnyExisting" and open a terminal.
  3. From Start, run "Developer PowerShell for VS 2022" or "Developer Command Prompt for VS 2022" from Visual Studio.

Expected Behavior

The developer prompt is new tab in the existing terminal window.

Actual Behavior

The developer prompt opens in a second instance of Windows Terminal. This creates another problem with alwaysShowNotificationIcon and the new compatibility.allowHeadless, where the extra notification area icon can't be closed without killing WindowsTerminal.exe.

This sounds exactly like the same thing as /dup #15509. Thanks!
