Initial terminal loads powershell, with Bash set as default.

[jaaneh]

• VS Code Version: 1.56.0
• OS Version: Win 10 20H2

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

After the recent update to 1.56.0, the initial terminal load when I open VSCode is always powershell. Any further opens of the terminal via shortcut or Terminal -> New Terminal opens the correctly Bash terminal.

My settins.json includes these settings.

"terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.windows": "Git Bash",
"terminal.integrated.automationShell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\bash.exe",

This is only an issue when I first opens VSCode. I then have to close and re-open the terminal for the correct shell to open.

Switching back to shell.windows solved the issue for me. Will live with the deprecated warning until #123174 is merged.

"terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.windows": "Git Bash",

"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\bash.exe"
