I have been attempting to run powershell as my terminal on windows in pycharm, so I did the following:
Specify the shell that will run by default. Here are some examples of different shells:
Bash: /bin/bash
Z shell: /bin/zsh
Bash for Windows: bash.exe
WSL: wsl.exe
PowerShell: powershell
Command Prompt: cmd.exe
Cygwin: "C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe" --login -i
