How do I use Bash on Windows from the Visual Studio Code integrated terminal?

Question

Visual Studio Code on Windows uses PowerShell by default as the integrated terminal. If you want to use Bash from Visual Studio Code, what steps should be followed?

Answer 1

If you already have "bash", "powershell" and "cmd" CLI's and have correct path settings then switching from one CLI to another can done by the following ways.

Ctrl + ' : Opens the terminal window with default CLI.

bash + enter : Switch from your default/current CLI to bash CLI.

powershell + enter : Switch from your default/current CLI to powershell CLI.

cmd + enter : Switch from your default/current CLI to cmd CLI.

VS Code Version I'm using is 1.45.0
