Greetings,
I am presented with this problem: if I open P.S. in the start menu version 7.2 normally opens, while if I open it from the quick win + x menu the popup opens and closes immediately and the version is 1.0 of P.S.
Then I noticed that there is no Windows Terminal!
What could be the problem?
I thank

Applications from the start menu are shortcuts stored in a number of different 'StartMenu' locations and can be any application. What you're launching from the start menu is a PS core shortcut executable. You could also launch the other versions of PowerShell and windows terminal with the appropriate shortcuts. The win + x menu is an IT menu shortcut that is also comprised of, for the most part, normal shortcuts. The only difference is a special function is used to generate a short hash value that is embedded in the shortcut file to make it difficult to modify that menu.

For the terminal, you may want to look in the settings to see what the default launch behavior is as well as the default console profile loaded.

The Appx module is a desktop and not a core module, meaning it's part of Windows powershell which ended at v 5.X. Powershell 6.x and 7. are PS core. You will need to install the WMF package as suggested by the error.
