@tsukasa696 did you change the terminal.explorerKind setting to external? Try setting it to integrated.

Hi @weinand ! My settings.json has being the same as when i install and mod to use different cmd

"shellLauncher.shells.windows": [{
            "shell": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe",
            "label": "cmd"
        },
        {
            "shell": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe",
            "label": "PowerShell"
        },
        {
            "shell": "D:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\bash.exe",
            "label": "Git bash"
        },
        {
            "shell": "D:\\Program Files\\cmder\\cmder.exe",
            "Label": "Cmder"
        }
    ],
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\cmd.exe",

the last update i did to that file was on September/October last year no new changes, and was working really fine

All those settings you mentioned above are irrelevant to the problem you are seeing. Please change "terminal.explorerKind" and see whether that makes a difference.

same issue with tsukasa696, but not work for me to change "terminal.explorerKind" setting

Launch VS Code
Type Ctrl + `
Expected: View Terminal
Actual: Open Windows powershell, not integrated terminal

version: 1.37.1 (system setup)
OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.18362

i try your recommendation and still the same issue, i clean the settings.json and was the same result so i rollback

/duplicate #73790, you need to disable legacy console mode in cmd.exe/conhost's properties.
