Windows Terminal Preview

This is the fourth servicing release for Terminal! We've fixed a couple of our more annoying issues, and added a new feature thanks to @ltrzesniewski for configuring the new URL warning dialog.

These release notes include changes from v1.25.1241.0 so that you don't need to go read those separately.

Changes

• You can now change the behavior of the URL warning dialog with the new safeUriSchemes setting (JSON safeUriSchemes, array of strings, default []) (#20207) (thanks @ltrzesniewski!)
• We have disabled store licensing checks on startup, which should improve launch performance and reliability and

This may be the first time we've released a servicing update for Preview without an associated update to Stable!
Well, at any rate, some of these fixes are destined for stable... eventually.

Bug Fixes

• IME composition will no longer blindly overwrite text to the right of the cursor, but "intelligently" push it further to the right to ensure that it stays visible (#20041) (thanks @drvoss!)
• Terminal will now display a warning dialog if you attempt to open a URL that might harm your computer (as voted by a bunch of security researchers) (#20065) (#20096)
• We have temporarily removed support for OSC 7, as it was

Ah, a Friday servicing release. That's never backfired before.

Changes

• The "invalid media resource, go get rekt" warning has been toned down (and for now, has been removed entirely in the Stable channel) (#19969)
• We now support the use of OSC 7 in some circumstances to report the current working directory (#20019)
• Terminal will once again emit an empty bracketed paste sequence (\e[200~\e[201~) when you attempt to paste an image (e.g. into an agentic coding CLI) (#20037)
• Terminal will now assert focus when you drag and drop a file on it (#20003) (thanks @etbala!)
• We've

Windows Terminal 1.25 is here, with a bunch of new features in tow!

It sports a new search experience inside the Settings page, the ability to edit actions, command palette entries and key bindings with a rich editor--rather than just their key bindings--support for Kitty's keyboard protocol and two completely new community translations!

Features

• You can now edit actions, key bindings, and command palette entries in full in the newly-rewritten A

In advance of the coming 1.25 release, enjoy this modest servicing update.
As usual, the preview channel will move to stable when 1.25 is released.

Changes

Bug Fixes

• The caption buttons will (finally!) dim when the window is out of focus (#19668) (thanks @Aliremu!)
• Compatibility with some popular Chinese and Japanese IMEs has been restored (#19738)
• Many of our cross-thread UI operations have been hardened against use-after-free (#19752)
• Terminal s

It's the most Terminal time of the year! Here's a servicing update to fix a couple pretty annoying bugs before we all disappear for the holidays.

Bug Fixes

• When Terminal encounters a GPU or driver issue, it will attempt to fall back to software rendering before giving up and asking you to intervene (#19636)
• DECRQCRA was erroneously disabled for everyone even if you turned it on; no longer! (#19606)
• Terminal can once again target the correct virtual desktop when creating a new window (#19458)
• Certain scroll wheels will no longer only scroll up (#19573) (thanks @penguin-sophist!)<

Another servicing update!

Bug Fixes

• Applications that try to update the taskbar progress but revert it within a couple hundred milliseconds will no longer be allowed to make the window go crazy (#19403)
• We will no longer rewrite your settings file on disk for what appears to be no reason when you have nested or iterable commands (#19408)
• Terminal Unpackaged and Portable will now use a more durable and specific identifier to deduplicate multiple app instances (#19415)

Servicing releases for everybody who likes the Preview channel, too!

Changes

• The Dimidium color scheme has received its final touches (#19303) (thanks @dofuuz!)

Bug Fixes

• wt sp no longer spawns a new tab before it splits it (#19347)
• In our recent media loading change, we forgot about bellSound! No longer! Fragments can contain bell sounds (and they can be relative paths) now (#19289)
• Launching and closing terminal windows, especially via the "default console host" process, should no longer leave you with inoperable window controls (oops) (#19298

Like a famously-hibernating animal coming out of a long sleep, Terminal Preview is back to eat a bunch of berries visit your machine with all of its new peculiarities.
We took a whole quarter off to focus on 1.23's stability, so this release might seem lighter than usual. That's only because we backported hundreds of changes to the now-stable 1.23!

We've changed how icons work, and now we let fragment authors include pixel shaders and stuff. It's a pretty cool release, so buckle up:

Features

• Command Palette will now be displayed (and searchable!) in both your native language and English (assuming your native UI language is not already English) (#19166
