Say Hello to Windows Terminal

Hello reader, this blog post will be bringing you to explore more on Windows Terminal


One good thing about this terminal is you can add custom profile . By default you gonna have 3 predefined profile that are
  1. Windows Powershell
  2. Command Promt or CMD
  3. Azure Cloud Shell



but we may want to add additional custom to make our  life easier as for my case, i want to help my friend who manage 0365 and Microsoft Team and most of the things done via powershell, so let get started

Pre Step -
 1. Of cause download and install windows terminal
 2. locate this path "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsTerminal_8wekyb3d8bbwe\RoamingState"- mainly for customization
*i downloaded and put this image on that location 

 3.  visit this website - https://www.guidgen.com/ to create a GUID - unique for each profile


Adding a custom Profile
1. open windows terminal and go to the setting



2. Since im gonna use powershell , so i just copy item number 1 and paste as item number 2. Please replace the GUID that you generated from the website given earlier



*always take note of -noExit parameter as this connect-microsoftteams will prompt for user name and password. 




 Here is my latest windows terminal that i have build 





Some sample or guide you may refer to few link below 

A lot more customization can be done so please try and enjoy.
