Windows Terminal will create profiles for PowerShell and WSL distributions automatically. New profiles can be added dynamically by the terminal or by hand. You can change the default profile by setting "defaultProfile" to the name of your preferred profile in your settings.json file. The default profile is the profile that always opens when you launch the terminal and it is the profile that will open when clicking the new tab button. Upon first launch of Windows Terminal, the default profile is set to Windows PowerShell. Each profile can have its own customizations to help you differentiate between them and add your own flair to each one. By default, each profile uses a different command line executable, however you can create as many profiles as you’d like using the same executable. Profiles act as different command line environments that you can configure inside the terminal.
If you have Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) distributions installed on your machine, they should also dynamically populate as profiles when you first launch the terminal. By default, the terminal includes Windows PowerShell, Command Prompt, and Azure Cloud Shell profiles inside the dropdown. First launchĪfter installing the terminal, you can launch the app and get started right away with the command line.
