QB64 odd behavior when Windows Terminal is set to default terminal app - hanness - 05-27-2022
In Windows 11, I go into Settings and then to the developer settings. Under "Terminal" I select Windows Terminal as the default terminal app to host command-line apps (the other choice would be the Windows Console Host).
After doing this, whenever I open the QB64 IDE, it also opens a Windows Terminal window. If I close that Terminal window, it also shuts down QB64. Likewise, if I close QB64, the Windows Terminal window also closes.
The next time I reopen QB64 it asks if I want to recover my program from an auto-saved backup.
Is this expected behavior?
My preference is to use Windows Terminal as the default terminal app, but this side-effect makes it awkward.
