Visual Studio Code - Terminal Blank Screen

Question

I\'ve been using Visual Studio Code since it was in beta and one of the features I like best about it is the integrated terminal for using the Angular CLI in app. I\'ve had

Answer 1

This is the only thing that worked for me.

Change this configuration:

File -> Preferences -> Settings, search for terminal.explorerKind, edit to external

or just edit the json file

"terminal.explorerKind": "external"

When VSCode prompted me telling me that using integrated was better, I followed its advice and switched. But a couple of days ago it started being very weird, in that it left a space between the actual prompt and whatever I was writing, like this: Sometimes the spacing left was of more than a dozen lines. It got instantaneously fixed once I switched back to external.

PS: This was also the case with Microsoft's Powershell terminal. I don't know if other terminals have the same issue under Windows.
