Steps to repro:
- Open Settings - App - Start up.
- Enable start up setting for Windows Terminal.
- Reboot.
Expected results: Windows Terminal can launch automatically after enter desktop and App start up setting should be on for Windows Terminal. Actual results: Windows Terminal can launch automatically after enter desktop, but App start up setting become off for Windows Terminal.

Walkthrough
<uap5:Extension Category="windows.startupTask"> <uap5:StartupTask TaskId="StartTerminalOnLoginTask" Enabled="false" DisplayName="ms-resource:AppName" /> </uap5:Extension>
That apparently can just be unset like:
<uap5:Extension Category="windows.startupTask"> <uap5:StartupTask TaskId="StartTerminalOnLoginTask" DisplayName="ms-resource:AppName" /> </uap5:Extension>
I would love to take this up!
@Harsh-Avinash Go for it! Lemme know if you need any help ☺️

More notes, circa Dec 2023:
Okay so we all re-read all the docs and I think we were wrong entirely here.
We should have never had this setting in our settings JSON in the first place. It should have always just been backed by the OS setting. This probably dates back to us just having a JSON settings file. We should make the settings in the Terminal Settings UI reflect the OS settings. We shouldn't maintain our own separate setting.
I need to write a new one!
We need to:
Enabled="false"
from our manidest, ala #16244
