  • How did you install it?
  • Are you running as administrator?
  • Do you have multiple users on this computer?
  • Are you using the "beta" "UTF-8 ACP" option?

hi, thank you for replying.

  • I installed it once from Microsoft store, and second here from the Repository (2 * releases), the Error dialog is rhe same.
  • I'm running as administrator.
  • no I have just one user as administrator.
  • "Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support" the result is the same, when the option checked or unchecked.

Is this still happening, or did it resolve itself?

Hello Team, I'm having the same issue here:

  • Windows Terminal Version 1.0.1401.0 x64, running on W10 Pro x64 version 1909 Build 18363.836
  • Installed from the Microsoft Store
  • The error only happens when trying to run elevated as Administrator, if running with normal privileges the app starts and works normally.
  • The current user does not have local admin permissions, we use a specific Admin user to elevate. The prompt for the Admin user credentials appears two times, then the error window appears.
  • I have tested it with a user that has Admin privileges and elevate directly: after the UAC dialogue, the application starts and runs fine.

Hope this will help to troubleshoot. Thanks in advance and best regards.

Hey sorry for the delay!

I'm pretty sure this is a dupe of the #1538/#1872/#4766/a bunch of other threads mess. There's a OS bug we're tracking with the platform team to try and get this fixed.

@DHowett can correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm gonna close this as a dupe in favor of the others. Thanks!
