Windows Terminal Preview 1.19.3172.0 for Windows 10 and Windows 11

Brink · Nov 16, 2023

Welcome to the mid-November servicing release for Windows Terminal!

This release includes the following changes:

Changes

On newer version of Windows 11, the Store will no longer terminate Terminal to install updates (#16250)

You can now set the opacity of a profile differently between its focused and unfocused appearances (#15974) (thanks @Jaswir!)

Bug Fixes
Usability

Environment variables will no longer spontaneously disappear if one happens to have a NUL in it (#16190)

The "Azure Cloud Shell" connector has been updated to support the new cloud shell protocol (#16247)

The regression where "Cascadia Mono" (or "... Code") would not be found on upgrade has been un-regressed (#16196)

The light color schemes now include a selection background that is actually visible (#16243) (thanks @TahaHaksal!)

You may need to delete the light color schemes from your settings to see this change.

With the new rendering engine, some pixel shaders should no longer cause characters to have a black background (#16219)

Screen readers and prompt marks now work more correctly with the newly-rewritten "cooked" input handler (#16105)

The new "cooked" input handler no longer misprints parts of the input when you fail a tab completion (#16273)

Reliability

Terminal no longer leaks nigh-unto infinite amounts of memory when it's out of focus (#16251)

When you close a window on Windows 10, there's a much lower chance of Terminal blowing up spontaneously (#16267)

Toggling the alternate screen buffer in a PROCESSED_INPUT console application will no longer crash the console (#16187)

The throughput of pasted text, which was reduced by contention on the I/O interface for the console, has been improved (#16224)

Miscellaneous

Scrollbar marks indicating errors are no longer rendered in the wrong color (#16106)

The issue where stable-branded binaries contained a -preview moniker has been fixed (#16122)

The system menu no longer grows hundreds of copies of the Settings... menu item when you close and reopen a window (#16225)

conhost: rectangular copy with the Alt key no longer merges text onto one line (#16197)

Binary files inside the unpackaged distribution archive bear the version number 1.19.231113002-preview.
