Failing to set environment variables

[Markpajr]

• VSCode Version: 1.41.1
• OS Version: Windows 10

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open terminal in vs code with ctrl+~
2. Attempt to set an environment variable with setx test 'teststring'
3. Above command returns "Success: Specified variable was saved"
4. Attempt to check environment variable with get-childitem env:
5. The variable does not appear in the list of variables, and does not show when you try calling with echo %test%

Maybe I'm just doing something wrong?

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

Edit: This issue can be closed, I didn't realize the default terminal VSCode was using is Powershell, and powershell env variables are set with $Env and not setx.
