Originally created by @VentyCZ on GitHub (May 7, 2020).

This happens randomly - does not depend on the number of opened/closed tabs before happening.
Sometimes it just crashes after 3 tabs are open after launch, but then other times it never happens.
Usually happens, when connected to a remote machine through SSH and then opening another tab - crash.

Feedback hub link: https://aka.ms/AA8dewb

Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.19041.208
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 0.11.1251.0
Using Ubuntu 18.04 and WSL2 (this terminal is set as default in my config).
No other changes to Terminal settings (default, auto-generated) except the "defaultProfile" setting.

Steps to reproduce

Keep opening and closing WSL tabs.

Expected behavior

Does not hang or crash.

Actual behavior

Either hangs or crashes with no error message.

@DHowett-MSFT commented on GitHub (May 7, 2020):

It looks like we're crashing because of two things:

  1. "RivaTuner"
  2. The nvidia graphics driver.

I'm not sure we can help either of these things...

@DHowett-MSFT Thanks for quick response, will try to disable RivaTuner, or add an exception to for Terminal.

If it would be graphics driver issue, someone would have reported it already.

Will report back.

Confirmed, turning off RivaTuner or adding WindowsTerminal.exe to the ignore list fixed the issue!
Thanks for help @DHowett-MSFT!
