Improvement to 'Change Windows Terminal default: powershell 5 -> powershell 7'

Open og-mrk opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Main Idea

Change the Start Menu Button Right Click from PowerShell to Windows Terminal (by default on windows 10, it'll be CMD and you can change it to PowerShell (version 5), but not Windows Terminal through settings app).

So "in a nutshell", have the Right Click Context Menu behave like Windows 11.

You just need a 22H2 build of Windows 10 and Windows Terminal installed, huh? 🤔

Seems to be a bit more complicated than anticipated. https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/12872

An idea to try to find out how the implementation differs from win10 to win11 would probably be a quite tedious comparison of the registry
