Description
### Windows Terminal version (or Windows build number)
Microsoft Windows 10 Pro for Workstations 10.0.19043.1165 (2009, 21H1) WindowsTerminal: 1.11.2421.0WindowsTerminal: 1.10.2383.0
### Other Software
_No response_
### Steps to reproduce
In either WT (1.10) or WTPreview (1.11), installed by just unzipping, open settings.json from the settings UI. Comment these lines (here, just the Azure line is sufficient):
//"disabledProfileSources":
//[
// "Windows.Terminal.Wsl",
// "Windows.Terminal.Azure",
// "Windows.Terminal.PowershellCore"
//],
Save the file.
### Expected Behavior
Nothing to speak of. This is how the properly (msix) installed ones behave.
### Actual Behavior
WindowsTerminal disappears.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the crash in WindowsTerminal installed by unzipping, using the settings UI to open settings.json, comment disabledProfileSources, and save. Compare this with the expected behavior of the MSIX-installed version; done means saving the commented configuration no longer causes WindowsTerminal to disappear.
