Windows Terminal version

1.23.10353.0

Windows build number

10.0.26100.0

Other Software

Git Bash is our Default profile (primary terminal shell) installed from Git 2.47.1.2 (but we've seen this behavior for some time).
OpenSSH_9.9p1, OpenSSL 3.2.3 3 Sep 2024

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open several terminal windows.
  2. We are using the multi-panes feature so I SSH over to a number of EC2 instances.
  3. Enable the 'Toggle broadcast input to all panes'
  4. Run some commands and then type exit

Expected Behavior

It only closes the terminal of these SSH sessions.

Actual Behavior

It closes all of my Windows Terminal windows.
I tried to attach a screen capture of this but it keeps reporting it failed to upload. So I put it on youtube here https://youtu.be/K0vEnnK4dTA

My co-worker pointed me to https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/18071 which it looks like is what I'm seeing.
