Description
### Windows Terminal version
1.22.1781.0
### Windows build number
10.0.26241.5000
### Other Software
_No response_
### Steps to reproduce
1. I changed the language setting from English to French.
2. The entire OS changed to French after I signed out.
3. I opened Terminal Canary and it's still in English.

### Expected Behavior
I'm expecting the language in Terminal to match with the OS since it should follow the system default
### Actual Behavior
Even tho Terminal's setting language uses the "system default", it remains the same previous language.
