Terminal
for Windows and Linux
for macOS
Ctrl+Alt+S 
While the default shell in MPS's terminal Alt+F12 works fine, many developers prefer to use their favorite shell. For example, Windows users may want to use PowerShell or Cmder, Linux and macOS users may want to use zsh instead of the default terminal shell. On this settings page, you can customize which shell will be used in the terminal.
