Help to set default terminal

[CaioMS2000]

I'm trying to set PowerShell as default terminal, so everytime i click "new terminal" it opens using powershell, i thought i should just set this configuration but it keeps opening using CMD

i've set the same configuration(C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe) in "user" and "workspace" section

Hey @CaioMS2000, @dartains,

sorry for the late response, I had to find time to investigate what's wrong. With the latest refactoring of the terminal profiles, things changed a bit. You now need to set the following preference in your settings.json:

"terminal.integrated.profiles.windows": {
    "cmd": {
        "path": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe"
    }
}

To open that settings.json, you can navigate to the terminal.integrated.profiles.windows preference (search for it in the UI) and click on the Edit in setting.json link:

I've created #14609 to track UX issues related to the profile selection.
