[MBot]

This release brings all of the preview changes in Windows Terminal 1.5 to the stable channel. Notable changes include:

• Support for automatic detection of URLs
• A tab switching UI that supports in-order navigation and most recently used navigation.

Please see the following release notes for additional details:

• Windows Terminal Preview v1.5.3242.0

A preinstallation kit is available for system integrators and OEMs interested in prepackaging Windows Terminal with a Windows image. More information is available in the DISM documentation on preinstallation. Users who do not intend to preinstall Windows Terminal should continue using the msixbundle distribution.

• The "Open Windows Terminal here" menu item will now (finally!) show up inside directories (thanks @hereafter!) (#8638)

Bug Fixes

General

• Terminal now tries harder to scroll tabs into view when you navigate (thanks @Don-Vito!) (#8832)
• Right-click paste now clears any active selection (thanks @Don-Vito!) (#8742)
• Pastes containing \n are now properly normalized to \r (#8634)
• The buttons in the title bar have been cajoled into being the right colors when the app theme doesn't match the system theme (thanks @satken2!) (#8649)
• The initialRows/initialCols settings should work more reliably in the presence of padding (thanks @hegenumo!) (#8584)
  • (Are we bad at math? You'd never be able to tell after this pull request!)
• Commandline arguments to wt that conflict with wt new-tab should now be detected properly (thanks @Don-Vito!) (#8315)
• The tab close button now matches the tab text when you override the tab color (whoops) (thank #dcheatha!) (#8209)

Reliability

• Terminal no longer leaks pty process handles when you close tabs (thanks to @vefatica for discovering this!) (#8707)
