Windows Terminal version

1.18.2822.0

Windows build number

10.0.22000.1848

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

I downloaded it through winget (using CMD). Command I ran : winget install Microsoft.WindowsTerminal

Expected Behavior

Run with no issues, open normally

Actual Behavior

Not opening, not saying anything at all, no error popups, no confirmation dialogs, not "opening and closing immediately". Just does not do anything at all.
When I checked "Windows Event Logs" I could see the cause, the log looks as follows:
