I am not sure this works as proposed in #971. @d35ha can you provide more details on how this works and how it looks like (maybe adding a screenshot)?

d35ha commented 2 weeks ago

@Ana06 I've created a console app, here is how its execution looks before and after setting these registry values:

before

after

Also, running cmd or powershell (from start menu or by double-clicking) opens it in Windows Terminal.

@Ana06 https://github.com/mandiant/VM-Packages/issues/973 is also addressed in this PR.

Ana06 commented 1 week ago

@d35ha is proposing using the windows terminal to open the shortcuts in the Tools directory, is this PR achieving this?

d35ha commented 5 days ago

@Ana06 Any application that requires a console would be assigned the Windows terminal console instead of the the old conhost.exe (that is including the shortcuts under the Tools directory).
