oh-my-posh not work on powershell administrator mode

[superlee007]

I have a question. I installed Oh My Posh on my Windows PowerShell by following the official installation guide. I used winget install JanDeDobbeleer.OhMyPosh -s winget to install Oh My Posh and then proceeded to install the recommended fonts. The guide suggests using the command oh-my-posh font install meslo to install fonts, but due to network issues, I kept getting timeout errors when accessing GitHub.

As a workaround, I manually downloaded the Meslo font from this GitHub link, extracted the files, and installed the fonts by copying them to C:\Windows\Fonts. Next, I configured PowerShell's font settings using the following JSON:

{
    "profiles": {
        "defaults": {
            "font": {
                "face": "MesloLGM Nerd Font"
            }
        }
    }
}

Finally, I ran notepad $PROFILE and added oh-my-posh init pwsh | Invoke-Expression. After restarting PowerShell, the theme and style appeared correctly.

However, when I open PowerShell as an administrator, the font is not applied correctly and displays garbled text. I have to manually set the font to MesloLGM Nerd Font Mono in the properties every time I start PowerShell in administrator mode. How can I fix this so the font applies automatically for administrator PowerShell?

@superlee007 you're starting administrator in a different terminal so that one needs to be configured as well. Administrator is a different user, different settings apply.
