Environment

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18363.476]
Windows Terminal 0.7

Steps to reproduce

Start Windows Terminal.

Expected behavior

Was hoping the application would open..

Actual behavior

The terminal icon appears in the start bar, then a moment later it disappears. The application never starts.

I've been using Windows Terminal for the last few versions and it's been fine. I upgraded to 0.7 today and now it no longer opens. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. I also tried explicitly removing profile.json, because i had previously changed it.

I've also tried rebooting.
