@qamard what's in your $PROFILE?

[marioshaya]

Hello,
Installed pwsh 7.2.6
The problem is gone
But I can't save my profile
My setup is gone once I close windows terminal, and also it's not working in other tab

[JanDeDobbeleer]

You need to add the init line to your $PROFILE which differs between pwsh 7 and 5, so make sure to edit/create that file.
