[Idea] Is it possible to replace the start menu `PowerShell` to `Terminal`?

Now the script works fine and can change my context menu. But how about the start menu?

Have no idea how this can be achieved yet.

Ok. I have modified it manually with winx menu editor. I will keep an investigation if there is a solution and will give you a response once I found.

I guess I found a solution.

In the folder: C:\Users\andui\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX\

There locate all the shortcuts in the win + x menu. Modifying those files and restart the explorer.exe will just modify the win + x menu.

@Anduin2017 The option is there to change it, but not exactly where you would expect it. Goto Settings -> Personalization -> Taskbar -> "Replace Command Prompt with Windows Powershell in the menu when I right-click the start button or press Windows key+X" Toggle it. That should do the work. image

[ I am on Windows 10 Pro (version -1909)]

@abhi5658 Ah. I'm not meant to replace that with CMD. But with Windows Terminal.

Thanks for your info.
