Fixed "Run in Pseudoconsole (ConPTY)" setting alone does not make startup tabs use pseudoconsoles

[Bringining this out of a previous thread to stand on its own]

What I do is:
  • I start TakeCommand as an administrator (that's how I always run it).
  • I disable Options / Take Command / Advanced / Advanced Options / Pseudoconsoles (ConPTY).
  • I define an startup tab in Options / Take Command / Tabs. Title is ROL, Command is TCC, Directory is D:\Rol, Run As is empty, Pasword is empty, and Run in Pseudoconsole (ConPTY) is enabled.
  • Then I exit TakeCommand, and restart it (again, as an administrator).
  • If I use Home / Run and I choose Start in ConPTY and app TCC, then in that tab, echo %_conpty returns 1 as expected.
  • However, in the ROL startup tab, echo %_conpty returns 0.

According to the help,
Pseudoconsole (ConPTY): If enabled, Take Command will default to starting new tabs using pseudoconsoles. This can be overridden in the Run dialog, or the Startup Tabs options on the Tabs page.
I would expect the startup tab ROL to be in a pseudoconsole.
