I typically run cmd.exe as my shell on Windows 11, but still in Windows Terminal.

Trying to run hyfetch prints the message "cmd.exe doesn't support RGB colors, restarting in MinTTY..." and starts MinTTY, even though I am running Windows Terminal, which does support colors, according to the README.
