Visual Studio 2022: How to access the built in "Developer PowerShell" instead of the Windo

In Visual Studio 2022, you can open the Developer PowerShell from Tools>Command Line>Developer PowerShell

In the previous versions of Visual Studio, it used to open the built in PowerShell window:

I can still access this if I use my old window layouts. So it still exists.

However, In VS 2022, if I try to open it from Tools>Command Line>Developer PowerShell, it just opens up a separate window:

Is there any way to open the built-in Developer PowerShell in VS 2022 without using old window layouts?

CodePudding user response:

In a newer version of VS 2022, the Developer PowerShell has been moved to View > Terminal it seems. Confusingly, Tools > Command Line >Developer PowerShell opens up the Windows PowerShell.

Edit: It seems there's a new Developer PowerShell now that is accessible from the start menu as a separate executable. This is what opens up if you try to open Developer PowerShell from Tools in VS. The confusion comes from the integrated "terminal" still being named "Developer PowerShell".
