PowerShell Terminal Blacked Out

[VertexTrilateral]

Type: Bug

Whenever I open a new terminal in my VS Code I cannot see the script. It is Blacked Out by a 'black box' over the text. I only see where the cursor is.

VS Code version: Code 1.81.1 (6c3e3dba23e8fadc360aed75ce363ba185c49794, 2023-08-09T22:22:42.175Z) OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.22621 Modes:

Does adding the setting "terminal.integrated.enableImages": false help?

[VertexTrilateral]

No it doesn't seem to work when I integrate the command line as shown in the settings.json file. Is it a bug between versions? If I go back to an earlier version my terminal shows but as soon as I update VS Code and click inside the terminal it blanks out like this again.
