  • OS Version: Windows_NT ia32 6.3.9600

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Change user (or workspace) setting: "terminal.external.windowsExec": "E:\cygwin64\bin\bash.exe"
  2. Open terminal (both: when non is open and when opening an additional one, also after restarting)

Also tried the same command as the Cygwin shortcut uses and it did not work: "terminal.external.windowsExec": "E:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -"

My error, this works: "terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "E:\cygwin64\bin\bash.exe"
