Terminal won't open

[craigloewen-msft]

Environment

Windows build number:19013
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): I can't look it up :( 

Any other software? No

Steps to reproduce

I've somehow gotten Windows Terminal into an interesting error state. Sorry I don't know how to reproduce this error. Looking more to see if I can collect any traces or anything for your team to help identify this.

• I click on the Windows Terminal and it starts up
  
• No Window pops up (I checked with Alt+Tab)
• Try to close Terminal and see a 'Not responding' message
  

Expected behavior

Windows Terminal should open up.

Actual behavior

Windows Terminal doesn't open.

More info:

I tried to open WSL from a regular Console window and it was stuck. My WSL service was in a stuck state.

My guess is that Terminal was polling my WSL instance to get my distros, but since that was stuck Terminal ended up stuck. I restarted and my WSL service was fixed, and Terminal was fixed as well.

@craigloewen-msft I bet this is #3987, right?

[craigloewen-msft]

Yeah that's very very likely what it was. Feel free to close this if you're tracking it over in #3987 as that would fix my issue.
