Environment

Windows build number:  Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.18363.0
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.11.1121.0

Steps to reproduce

Set WSL (Ubuntu) as default shell. Launch Windows Terminal. Alternatively, simply launch a new WSL tab using the + sign

Expected behavior

Launching Windows Terminal should give a functional WSL (Ubuntu) shell (current personal default). This was working previously, not working anymore.

Actual behavior

Launching a WSL Ubuntu shell through Terminal no longer works. Various types of issues happen:

  • The terminal hangs before displaying the shell (bash), OR
  • Terminal opens at the shell but disables typing across all open tabs including Powershell, cmd, etc.
  • My default tab is WSL, it no longer launches WSL, while my settings still shows WSL as default.
