Windows Terminal Preview is not recognized by Files
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug Basically, Files doesn’t recognize WT Preview. You may try to manyally add it to the terminal.json file but it gets removed on startup. Even changing the title from “Windows Terminal” to “Windows Terminal Preview” still makes Files remove that JSON object all together.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to Settings > Preferences
- Edit the file to add Windows Terminal Preview
- Go back to Settings > Preferences after a restart of the app
- See that the entry you added is deleted and not there.
Expected behavior The expected behavior is that my entry for Windows Terminal Preview would continue to be there after a restart.
Desktop:
- OS Version: Windows 10 1909 18363.1082
- App version: v0.15.4.0
Additional context
The workaround I have found for this is to change the command for the Windows Terminal JSON object from wt.exe
to just wt
.
EDIT:
For Clarity, this bug is only present when ONLY Windows Terminal Preview is installed and not also the Stable version.
