Hello everyone,

When I rt click the mouse or press shift+ rt click I don't see command prompt but open in terminal and open in terminal + open windows power shell here.

My query is how can I bring back command prompt vs power shell?

Hoping to hear back from the experts.

Thanks.

Thanks for replying. I don't see command prompt in Terminal, 3 options > Let windows decide, windows console and windows terminal ( i.e. power shell)?
