I've just acquired a new laptop, it installed "Windows Terminal Version: 1.6.10571.0" with Win11, and this Terminal is quite old, it doesn't even include a Settings UI. It would be nice if Terminal app included a way to update itself or at least a notice on this in About window.

Ideally there should be an easy updating mechanism no matter how WT is installed (if via msix, it should offer to download the latest msix etc)

Also clicking on Release Notes there in About window redirects to generic repo's release notes, and not notes of the specific release.
