cmd.exe will not run
I have been having some issues with windows 11's terminal apps.
When executed, cmd.exe will exit immediately which exit code. Powershell and wsl all work fine.

Windows Terminal somehow got into my Win+X menu, even after I uninstall Windows terminal.
In additional, Windows terminal does not show as an option in default terminal app in the terminal settings.
Hi cwang36,
Windows 11 comes with Windows Terminal as the default command-line tool. However, you can still use the cmd as a command-line tool by the following below steps.

Thanks for the reply, SalmanAhmed , didn't know that Windows Terminal now comes preinstalled with the system.
The issue with cmd.exe exiting with code 1 is eventually fixed after a clean install of windows 11. I was originally upgraded from windows 10.
- Thanks for your feedback!
It is extremely important to have such a comprehensive tool that supports a number of commands from Linux, PowerShell, SSH, and Cloud Shell. It is a big shift to move from a traditional console to Windows Terminal that will support the commands and run applications from a different platform.
