Installing the font for all users fixes the issue like in #14382, but it probably shouldn't happen in the first place. I don't know policy so I'm leaving it open.

Yep... Everyone on the team is patiently waiting for this issue to be fixed as well. 🥲 It's a general OS bug that affects any app like Windows Terminal and is not something that we can easily fix ourselves. I'll close this issue then since you already found the workaround. I'm glad to hear that it fixed your issue at least.
