Windows Terminal version

1.23.10353.0

Windows build number

10.0.26100.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

Open the Terminal.

Expected Behavior

Expected behavior is for it to only open 1 instance not multiple.

Actual Behavior

Everytime i launch the terminal, it seems to open multiple instances, and this only happens on the preview version.

Also everytime i open it through the context menu it opens 3, so 1 of them is usually in the correct path and the rest are always opened in root.
