Environment

Windows build number: [run `[Environment]::OSVersion` for powershell, or `ver` for cmd]
Windows Terminal version (if applicable):
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18362.418]

Any other software?
WSL (version 1, not tried on WSL2 since not on Insider Program).
Terminal (version: 0.5.2762.0)

Steps to reproduce

Set up WSL as the default terminal to be used in the application.
Start up the Terminal, and before the startup is complete (meaning, before the terminal is available to be interacted with), close it down.

Expected behavior

Closing the instance of Terminal

Actual behavior

Blue screen on the pc, with a "KMODE EXCEPTION NOT HANDLED".

I stand at disposal for whatever data might be needed.
