Version 7.5 causes terminal window crash

[rdcloud85]

Type: Performance Issue

When I start VC, with PowerShell 7.5 installed, I get error messages about the terminal window and files not found. Consequently, powershell would not run.

I had to uninstall 7.5 and reinstall 7.4; now it works fine.

Thanks for your submission! Can you include a copy of the logs that might be helpful? Do you have any custom settings that explicitly specify your PowerShell location?

Can you record a reproduction? On windows 11 you can use Win+Shift+R to record and you can paste that directly into github.
