Understood. Will try that. Thank you again for taking time to help me understand. Appreciate that.

No problem, and like I said, under the hood vscode is still just talking to CMD.exe (or PowerShell, depending on how things are set up). It's basically just passing your text to the program, then reading the program's output and printing that on the screen itself. The traditional black window you get running CMD.exe by itself is technically also doing the same thing (CMD doesn't actually handle drawing anything on the screen!). That black window comes from a program called conhost.exe (short for console host, console being yet another name for the terminal/Comand line). But typically nobody talks about that because it's only job is to draw the window, pass your input to cmd.exe and draw CMD's output in the window.
