Bug: Windows Terminal doesn't open using `ctrl` + `'` shortcut

[3l3phant]

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Per the title, a way to natively drop into Power Shell at the location of the panel would be great.

Requirements

• This proposal will accomplish easier way to launch/manipulate/work in admin mode on the contents of the directory displayed in the panel.

Files Version

4.0.24.0

You can open Windows Terminal using ctrl + ` shortcut. Can you confirm if this is what you mean?

[3l3phant]

I hadn’t realized that was a command, but after you pointed it out, I tried it, however it doesn’t seem to actually open the terminal. I tried changing the key combination, too (and made sure there was no conflict with an existing comment) but the same – no response. Should I move this to a Bug?

Do you have Windows Terminal installed? It doesn't support the separate CMD / PowerShell windows

[3l3phant]

Yup. Just double checked and confirmed.

I have reproduced. Can I work on this?
