%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState

To change the background of any of the shells, you first need to put the image file in a place that the terminal application can read.Windows Terminal is a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) application, so it prefers to use its own AppData folder. AppData is a folder that you usually find in your user profile, and it is used to store program settings. UWP apps create a custom AppData folder and use It instead. The Windows terminal AppData folder is located in the following path:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\RoamingState

To change the background image for one of these sections, add the following lines under the "icon" line or above the "name" line:

"backgroundImage" : "ms-appdata:///roaming/image.jpg", "backgroundImageOpacity" : 0.75, "backgroundImageStrechMode" : "fill",

Change hotkeys

{ "command" : "closeTab", "keys" : [ "ctrl+w" ] },
