Powershell / Visual Studio Code: Update version of Powershell in Visual Studio Code

Question

I'm using Visual Studio Code version 1.37.1 and the version VS-Code is using is powershell version is 5.1.18362.145.

I went to GitHub and got the latest powershell version, 6.2.2 and installed it, but when I run $psversiontable in VS-Code, it tells me it's version 5.1.18362.145.

How do I get VS-Code to use the latest powershell version I have installed?

Thank you.

Answer 3

As of the latest VS Code, just go to Settings and configure:

terminal.integrated.profiles

Just need to set this to Powershell instead of Default (or the appropriate directory).
