    Hi Ini3vm,

    Sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue!

    I am Bhavik, a Microsoft user like you. Please note, I am not a Microsoft employee and don’t have direct access to your account, but I will do everything I can to help you with your queries. :)

    Can you please try below steps?

    1. Open Windows Settings by pressing Windows + I keys
    2. Go to Apps > Apps & features > App Execution aliases
    3. In that list, you will find Terminal entry, there will be a toggle button on the right of it, if it is set to On, just turn it off and turn it on again, if it is set to Off, then simply turn it on
    4. Exit the settings and then verify that below path is accessible from the Run window (Windows + R)

    %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\wt.exe

    Let me know in case of any further assistance is required, I will be glad to assist.

    Thanks

    Bhavik
