Alright, this should be a fairly simple question, but failing every possibilities, I'm afraid that it is becoming a loaded one, just to get Microsoft Windows Terminal installed.
The Microsoft Windows Terminal
is a new, modern, fast, efficient, powerful, and productive terminal application for users of command-line tools and shells like Command Prompt, PowerShell, and WSL. Its main features include multiple tabs, Unicode and UTF-8 character support, a GPU accelerated text rendering engine, and custom themes, styles, and configurations.
It is an open source project available at https://github.com/microsoft/terminal
Trying to install from https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/releases, I'll get:
Trying to install from Microsoft Windows Terminal Shop, I'll get (and the result would be the same if I do search from Microsoft Shop and click on it):
Trying to install with choco install microsoft-windows-terminal
, I'll get:

So, once again, simple question, how to get Microsoft Windows Terminal installed? thx.
Installing it straight from the Microsoft Store didn't work for me either. In Windows 10 1909, I did (it's an msix). Note that the appx commands are gone in powershell 7.1.
Add-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_0.11.1191.0_8wekyb3d8bbwe.msixbundle
and it installed ok.

You should install this dependence: Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00. You can get it only from VLSC ISO image called "SW_DVD9_NTRL_Win_10_1903_32_64_ARM64_MultiLang_App_Update_X22-01657.ISO" (if your Windows 10 version is 1903/1909). Google it. The site with alive link will be in the top of search. Unfortunately these kind of packages is distributed only within VLSC.
