Originally created by @LeeThompson on GitHub (Jul 3, 2019).

When using Terminal Preview if I pull down the menu and select "Settings" it tries to launch a third party game utility on my system (GW2Command.exe).

If I uninstall that, Terminal Preview's "settings" option just tries to run a json file. I'm guessing GW2Command was associated with json.

Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.18362.207
Windows Terminal version: 0.2.1715.0

Steps to reproduce

Use Terminal Preview's "Setting" menu command on a system without json files associated.

Expected behavior

A GUI would've been nice, but it should at least launch it with notepad or something.

Actual behavior

No ability to configure Terminal preview.

Currently it just opens the json file and lets windows handle it.
For settings UI, see #1564
