The reason I want two separate icons on the taskbar--one for SQLite windows and one for other cmd windows--is so that I can go Right Click > Close All Windows without closing my database windows. This is how it worked in win 10. Now even with the setup this close, I still have to click each...

Only reason I haven't marked this as resolved is: (read the title). I want two icons on the taskbar: one for open SQLite windows and another for open cmd prompt windows, for example if I'm running a Python module. And no icons on the taskbar (nothing pinned) if no cmd windows are open. Currently...

I found a pretty good solution here: Command Prompt and Windows Powershell for Windows 11 - Microsoft Support I opted out of Windows Terminal which shows PowerShell or something in a tabbed layout. To get most of the old behavior back, I changed 2 settings after right-clicking the title bar on...

@ glaskuter No problem opening multiple cmd consoles, the reason I will switch to PowerShell (in spite of also being too old to want to) is that if I have a bunch of output that I'm not ready to clear out, and I resize the window to read it better, then start typing a new command, the command...

Looks like the easiest compromise might be to pin my SQLite shortcut to the taskbar and adjust to what happens when I click it (a new console opens up each time--OK for viewing side by side.) And change the shortcut to open PowerShell instead of the old cmd console.

I just noticed that if I run a Python app, there's another console window open but only one icon on the taskbar. I also just learned that if I resize a cmd console, when I start typing the next command, the insertion point for the text I'm typing hasn't been moved to where the command line...

I finally noticed that the cmd console has tabs now, so I won't always need to open multiple instances of it anymore. On the other hand, it would be nice to have two console windows open side by side instead of having to click back and forth on two tabs.

This wasn't a problem in Win 10, the two icons were the same. And I'm not talking about what icon shows on the taskbar when the shortcut icon is pinned to the taskbar. That works, and I'll pin it if I have to, but here's what I'd rather do: Long ago I added a custom desktop icon to a shortcut...
