Question

Answer 1

Thanks for the original answer from Peter. Definitely helped ! It has now slightly changed in more recent versions of VS Code.

1. Navigate to File -> Preferences -> Settings
2. Type cwd in search
3. Choose Terminal > Integrated: Cwd settings
4. Type the default path you want to set in the text block below (simply, no need for double hashes to escape)
5. No need for saving, It's automatic
6. Restart VS Code
