  • VSCode Version: 1.21.0-ins
  • OS Version: win7x64

Every time you restart the VS Code - you have to enter the commands again and again.

So, maybe anyone could implement a in-built history for those? It would help a lot!

This might be happening on Windows because we're forcefully killing all console processes in the process tree when VS Code is shutdown https://github.com/Tyriar/node-pty/blob/ad71e8989d7613e2e439cc191ede6d5e48600f58/src/windowsPtyAgent.ts#L99

Without this sometimes zombie processes would be left over. Perhaps there should be a timeout or something before we kill everything to allow processes to shut down gracefully? It would then depend on how winpty shuts down the processes.

This is likely related to winpty, tracking in #45693
