Problem:

Windows Terminal runs at large size but is not maximized!


You can see that the program is running normally but with the large size.

It is correct to see the Restore Down button, instead of the Maximize button.

I think this is actually a /dupe of #3440, which was recently fixed and should be coming out soon.
