   Hi AlexcFrench,

   2.75.0 is not the latest Azure CLI(2.76.0).

   If you haven't already attempted to do so, please upgrade to the latest Azure CLI version by following https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/update-azure-cli.

    AlexcFrench, I can reproduce this issue, and I believe this is currently the expected behavior of WAM.

    I will reach out to WAM team to report it.

    Describe the bug

    Using Windows Terminal (latest release) - multiple tabs open to Powershell, Command Prompt, etc.

    Perform an az login

    The login gui window appears

    At this point it is not possible to select any other tabs in Windows Terminal. The login gui window blocks all access to any tabs in Windows Terminal, not just the tab that executed the az login command.

    Related command

    az login

    Errors

    No error - just a functionality issue when using Windows Terminal

    Issue script & Debug output

    n/a

    Expected behavior

    az login gui window should only block the tab that executed the az login command - not all tabs.

    Environment Summary

    azure-cli 2.75.0 Windows Terminal 1.22.12111.0

    Additional context
