1. I change the `user.config`:
C:\Users\w\OneDrive\work\.wind\profiles\default.v10\user.config (Onedrive sync folder)
```json
{
"application.language" : "zh-CN",
"terminal.reimportShellSessions" : 2,
"terminal.text.hiddenMargins" : [ "symbol", "timestamp" ]
}
```
2. Find the path `.wind/profiles/default.v10/terminal/user.sessions` and delete `session.autoLogin`
3. open the Windterm
4. Ctrl+Alt+L (Windows)
5. change master password

Research direction

Reproduce the password-change failure using the shown user.config path and the terminal/user.sessions file, including removal of session.autoLogin and the Ctrl+Alt+L flow. Compare the reported Windows and macOS behavior in WindTerm 2.6.1 and 2.7.0. Done means changing the master password succeeds after the described reset state.
