This release brings all of the preview changes in Windows Terminal 1.3 to the stable channel. Notable changes include:

• A new tab switching experience, on by default. Opt out with "useTabSwitcher": false.
• The command palette is now bound to Ctrl+Shift+P by default
• All other changes, except those below, from Windows Terminal Preview v1.3.2382.0

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.

We've also backported the following changes from Windows Terminal Preview v1.4.2652.0:

• 1.3 ONLY: We've disabled the togglePaneZoom action for the stable release; see #7252 for more information
• 1.3 ONLY: We've disabled the creation of a new process environment block due to a regression in Windows PowerShell
  (x86); see #7418 for further details
• Windows Terminal 1.3 ships with an updated version of Cascadia Code with support for the Salishan languages of the Pacific Northwest
  
  • Cascadia Code 2009.21 is not currently available outside of Terminal because of some cross-platform font rendering troubles
  
  
• Degenerate ranges should stay degenerate, even when they're moved (thanks @codeofdusk!) (#7530)
• Selecting an out-of-bounds text range through Narrator or NVDA should no longer take Terminal to a nice quiet farm upstate (thanks @codeofdusk!) (#7504)
• The Azure Cloud Shell profile no longer defaults to having acrylic enabled (thanks @KnapSac!) (#7573)
• An occasional deadlock on shutdown has been unlocked, and shutdown should proceed as planned (#7575)
• We fixed that weird issue where Vim would occasionally start in REPLACE mode by moving all DSR responses to the tail of the input queue instead of the head (#7583)
