Windows Termin 1.22.2702.0 has been released, with the handle pointing to a hidden pseudo console.

Does someone already have an idea how to get the correct parent window handle now?

The issue is how Windows Terminal sets the parent Window handle. There's nothing in MSAL that we can do to solve this issue.
