How to change VS Code Default Terminal to python

Question

I am using Visual Studio Code on my Windows 10 PC. I want to change my default terminal from 'Windows PowerShell' to 'Python' (on Windows). Someone help me solve this issue.

Answer 1

Press Ctrl+Shift+P to bring up the command palette and run the Terminal: Select Default Profile command:

If Python does not appear here, add a profile for it manually in your JSON configuration. Press Ctrl+Shift+P and run the Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON) command:

Add the following lines in your JSON config file and save it:

"terminal.integrated.profiles.windows": {
    "Python": {
        "path": "python",
        "args": []
    }
},

Afterwards you should be able to select Python as your default terminal profile.
