Windows Terminal Preview version 1.23.11132.0 has been released as a maintenance update focused on enhancing the user experience and addressing various bugs. Key features of this update include the removal of the non-functional `startOnUserLogin` setting from the configuration options, with automatic launch now configurable through the Settings UI. The update introduces support for Group Policy templates to assist in configuring the Default Terminal application, clearer error messaging for application launch failures, and the ability to override language settings in portable and unpackaged versions. Additionally, VT applications can now reset their color palette, including foreground, background, cursor, and selection colors.

This update has also improved the accuracy of displaying session dates in local time, enhanced the layout of the suggestions user interface, and resolved a bug where the terminal would not recognize the working directory when launched via the `wt` command. Compatibility has been improved for Windows versions prior to 1903, ensuring that all terminal components load correctly. Other notable enhancements include proper CRLF translation, improved reliability during I/O contention, and fixes for screen corruption issues when using multi-cell characters.

Accessibility features have also been enhanced, allowing users to invoke the "Open JSON File" option in Settings using Voice Access or a Screen Reader. The update promises significantly reduced crash rates when closing active terminal panes, ensuring a smoother user experience.

Looking ahead, further improvements and bug fixes are anticipated, particularly related to windowing functionality, which developers are keen to release in the near future. Windows Terminal continues to evolve, with ongoing efforts to refine its features and performance for a better user experience
