Windows Terminal version

1.19.10821.0

Windows build number

10.0.19045.4291

Other Software

I do have Ubuntu running in WSL, however, it happens in Ubuntu tabs as well as Powershell (I use Powershell 7)

Steps to reproduce

  • Reboot computer
  • start Windows Terminal
  • get error(s) (happens on both PowerShell and WSL (Ubuntu) tabs. Also, all special characters for addons like Oh My Zsh and Oh My Psh get screwed up.
  • No mnatter how many times I close/reopen or open new tabs, I get the same error until.....
  • I click the Settings cog and the settings window opens
  • No changes need to be made; don't even need to click the save button. Just click the X to close the settings page.
  • from there on (until next reboot) no more font errors, and the special character fonts for things like Omz/Omp show properly.

Expected Behavior

No errors and my fonts show properly. :)
