Pull request overview
Adjusts PowerShell terminal shell integration in VS Code’s accessibility mode to avoid triggering problematic PSReadLine replacement behavior on Windows PowerShell 5.1, addressing the “infinite Enter” symptom reported after updating (issue #303202).
Changes:
- Gate the PSReadLine removal/re-import logic to PowerShell 7.0+ to avoid replacing the built-in PSReadLine on Windows PowerShell 5.1.
- Add inline rationale explaining why Windows PowerShell 5.1 is excluded (input handling issues).
