Terminal: Set default shell

[AnikHasibul]

I want ubuntu as my default shell. How to do that?

When I open the terminal app, I would like to see ubuntu be opened instead of powershell.

You can do this setting in the profiles.json file. There you find the option to set the default profile for your terminal.

You'll find the correct GUID for your profile in the profiles section of the file.

Thank you!

It worked. For people also looking for the answer:

{
    "globals" : 
    {
        "alwaysShowTabs" : true,
--      "defaultProfile" : "{61c54bbd-c2c6-5271-96e7-009a87ff44bf}",
++      "defaultProfile" : "{2c4de342-38b7-51cf-b940-2309a097f518}",
        "initialCols" : 100,
        "initialRows" : 25,
        ....

This worked for me. Where {2c4de342-38b7-51cf-b940-2309a097f518} is the value of the "guid" in my ubuntu profile.
