PowerShell Scripts to Install/Uninstall Context Menu Items for Windows Terminal

A project backed by LeXtudio Inc.

Install

  1. Install Windows Terminal.

  2. Install PowerShell 7.

  3. Launch PowerShell 7 console as administrator, and run install.ps1 to install context menu items to Windows Explorer.

    Quickest way to run the latest script from GitHub at an elevated PowerShell 7 console is

    Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lextm/windowsterminal-shell/master/install.ps1'))

Now the menu items are added to Windows Explorer context menu.

The menu items are organized in the default layout. Other layouts such as mini and flat give different look and feel. To apply an alternative layout (like mini), simply run install.ps1 mini.

Uninstall

  1. Run uninstall.ps1 to uninstall context menu items from Windows Explorer.

To uninstall an alternative layout (like mini), run uninstall.ps1 mini.

Notes

The current release only supports Windows 10 machines (Windows Terminal restriction) and Windows Terminal installed via the store or .appx file.

If Windows Terminal is installed via Scoop, scripts from another repo might help.

The install script must be run as administrator.

That's because it pulls out data from Windows Terminal's installation folder, which is locked down by Windows 10.

PowerShell 7 installed from Microsoft Store is not supported by the scripts (more details can be found in #37).

install.ps1 and uninstall.ps1 only manipulate current user's Windows Explorer settings for the context menu items, and do not write to Windows Terminal settings.

So different users on the same machine must install the context menu items separately, but possibly with different layouts.

Downloading Windows Terminal icon from GitHub (in install.ps1) requires internet connection, but in general is just an optional step that won't be executed in most cases.
