WindowsTerminal.exe spawning PowerShell/cmd without RunMRU trail
Detects instances where Windows Terminal (WindowsTerminal.exe) is launched by Explorer and immediately spawns a shell process (PowerShell, PWSH, or CMD), specifically excluding devices that have recorded recent RunMRU registry history. This pattern may indicate suspicious or non-interactive execution by an adversary attempting to bypass traditional shell history tracking.
