[Server 22538] Windows Terminal Doesn't be Shown on Context Menu
I guess it depends which context menu you're talking about. From my perspective/memory, the Windows Terminal context menu option has never worked on any Server version in the "Directory\Background" context (i.e. where you right-click in an empty area in Explorer). It has however, always shown up by right-clicking on the folder itself on the left-side navigation folder pane, and you can improve the experience by turning on the pane's 'Expand to current folder' option, albeit it probably ruins the muscle memory of right-clicking on the empty space.
With these latest vNext builds (I'm not sure if 22538 had it yet), you can set the "default terminal app" in Settings, Privacy & security > For developers. Once you've done that, you can use the standard method of starting cmd or powershell from the address bar of any File Explorer window.
To do that, in File Explorer, you press Alt-D to focus the address bar, type cmd (or powershell), hit Enter, and Windows Terminal will show up, in the correct directory, and in the desired shell. Install gsudo along with this, and you can easily elevate any commands too. At least that's how I do it.
