Installing and configuring Windows Terminal

Windows Terminal is Microsoft's combined replacement for the command line and Windows PowerShell. It lets you run more powerful administrative commands and tools on Windows than you would otherwise be able to access through a graphical user interface.

Instead of jumping from one tool to another, the new Windows Terminal brings them together. You can run Windows bash scripts, connect to Azure virtual machines, and open a Windows Subsystem for Linux terminal, all in one window.

The new Windows Terminal app is still in active development. Instead of testing it internally, Microsoft has made a "preview" release available for download from the Microsoft Store.
