7. Press Ctrl+` (or View > Terminal in menu) to open a new terminal pane.

open settings (ctrl+comma)

find terminal.integrated.shell.windows

I also faced this problem that when I clicked on terminal. It was showing Powershell but not Command Prompt, so I did the following steps to get Command Prompt in Visual Studio:

1. View -> Command palette -> Toggle Integrated Terminal
2. Open terminal by shortcut ctrl+` or View -> terminal
3. Write the command as cmd.exe and run

I found two different ways to switch from powershell to command prompt in VSCode. Very simple steps i found my self as below:

First one is very simple way:

1. Press Ctrl+` (or View > Terminal in menu) to open a new terminal pane.
2. Click terminal selection dropdown and click 'Select Default Shell'.

3. Choose terminal type Command Prompt or PowerShell

4. Now Delete current opened terminal or open new terminal.

Now, Command Prompt will be your default shell in VSCode.

Second one is also simple and handy for all devs.

1. Press Ctrl+Shift+P to show all commands.
2. Type shell in the displayed text box to filter the list.
3. Select Terminal: Select Default Shell.
4. You will be prompted to Select your preferred terminal shell, you can change this later in your settings or follow the same process as we do now
5. Select Command Prompt (cmd.exe)
6. Click the Delete Icon in the shell pane to remove the existing terminal.
7. Press Ctrl+` (or View > Terminal in menu) to open a new terminal pane.

In the current terminal ,simply type cmd and enter. And you are done.

From Visual Studio if you have powershell set as your default integrated terminal, after you call it with Ctrl-` (control backtick) - that toggles from the terminal to your files panel and back. Call the terminal, It will show as 1: pwsh in the dropdown box. From the powershell command line type bash and enter. You have your bash prompt $. In the dropdown you now see 1: bash.

You can type cmd from either the ps C: or the $ bash prompt and open the windows command prompt. C:> and exit to exit them.

You can open up multiple terminals. Say powershell (pwsh) is your default one. A new terminal will show as 2: pwsh which you can change to a cmd one. The same if you open a third. Change it to bash. You now have 3 terminals 1: pwsh, 2: cmd, and 3: bash. You can select whichever one you want to work with from the dropdown. You can of course exit any of them.

No doubt you've seen that when you are running node.js, the terminal becomes node.

2021 Update:

Hit Ctrl+Shift+P

Type/Paste : Terminal: Select Default Profile

Select the command prompt from the drop down list.

Thanks! :)
