Virtual Environment Does Not Appear Next to Path in Shell

Issue

Moved #2788 to Bug as activate scripts within virtual environment folder indicate virtual environment name is supposed to appear next to path in parentheses (as is typical when using, e.g., virtualenv). This does not work (at least for Windows Command Prompt).

Action:

C:\Users\example\Desktop\Project>poetry shell

Expected Result:

Spawning shell within C:\Users\example\AppData\Local\pypoetry\Cache\virtualenvs\project-####-py#.#
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17763.1339]

(project-####-py#.#) C:\Users\example\Desktop\Project>

Actual Result:

Spawning shell within C:\Users\example\AppData\Local\pypoetry\Cache\virtualenvs\project-####-py#.#
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17763.1339]
(c) 2018 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\Users\example\Desktop\Project>

Update: Using VSCode, I can set

"python.venvPath": "C:\\Users\\example\\AppData\\Local\\pypoetry\\Cache\\virtualenvs"

in user settings. Now, upon opening VSCode, the activate.batch script is run and the virtual environment appears in parentheses next to the path and I can use the commands activate and deactivate to display and remove, resp., the virtual environment next to the path.

However, after running deactivate, entering poetry env list in my project directory shows:

(project-####-py#.#) (Activated)

I see this was noted in #2387, however this feels counter intuitive from common usage of virtual environments and leaves me unsure as to whether the environment is truly active or not.

Poetry version 1.1.7 has same problem on Windows 10 1909 (build 18363.1556).
Any solution or idea?
