Windows Terminal version

1.20.11381.0

Windows build number

10.0.22631.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

configure the options:

{
      "command": 
      {
          "action": "globalSummon"
      },
      "keys": "ctrl+alt+t"
},

and

"compatibility.allowHeadless": true,
"minimizeToNotificationArea": true,

then open a window and close it (click on the top bar X).

try to make the window apper again.

Expected Behavior

A month ago it would allow me to close the window (click on the top bar X) and keep it running on background with an icon in the tray. I would click the icon or hit ctrl+alt+t to focus the window and use the teminal.

Actual Behavior

When I close the window (click on the top bar X) now I cant make it focus or apper in anyway. Not the shortcut, not clicking on the tray icon, nor even trying to open a new application window via start menu. The only action I can take after closing a window is going into the taskmanager, closing the terminal and then open it again. :/

Thanks for filing! It looks like we have some unexpected behavior here from a combination of bugs.

  1. Tray icon remains with terminal terminated #16733: Windows should not show up in the tray after they've been closed
  2. When compatibility.allowHeadless is enabled, globalSummon should work (that's what we'll track in this bug)

Here's some other issues that may appeal to you: #12933, #10448
