Always open integrated terminal with new window - visual-studio-code

I would like to automatically open integrated terminal when I open a new window (directory/project) in vscode. Is this possible to achieve with a setting? Tried to look for a setting on the internet but couldn't find.

Actually I think there is no settings for that but there is an extension in vscode for that: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=EthanSK.restore-terminals and I think you can configure it.

How to configure JS/TS debugger on PhpStorm like on VSCode with attach option?

I am moving from VSCode to PhpStorm. In VSCode I could configure debugger with attach mode.
What is attach mode? It allows you to debug your app in existing browser window. In launch mode new instance of browser is started.
In PhpStorm I can't see that option in docs. Do I search in wrong way? Or there is a trick to do that?
Thank you for response.
You can use the Attach to Node.js/Chrome run configuration to attach the debugger to a running Node.js process/Chrome browser started with --remote-debugging-port option. See https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2021.3/running-and-debugging-node-js.html#node_debugging_running_application for more info.

Why can't VSCode open files from Explorer if it was open as administrator?

I set VSCode to open as administrator on the shortcut settings.
This causes a weird behaviour in which VSCode can't open other files from Explorer just returning that Windows error sound and no message at all. Doesn't open on neither same nor new instance.
But if I go through File / Open, it works.
What am I missing?
Thanks
Nevermind, I just realised that Explorer won't open things as administrator and that's why it won't open in that instance
Still, I think VSCode should be able to open a new non-admin instance.
For anybody else looking for this in the future, the work around would be to force it to always open as admin, so Explorer won't have an option. To do that, go to the .exe, right click, Properties, Compatibility, check "Run this program as admin" (might be differently worded. My system isn't in English).
With this, it will always open, but won't create a new instance

Visual Studio code 'open in browser' extension failed

I have installed Open in browser visual studio extension. But when I try to open the browser by shortcut Alt+B. It fails showing the following:
Running the contributed
command:'extension.openInDefaultBrowser' failed.
Please help if there's any solution.
Go to settings --> Extensions --> Open in Browser and set a default browser. In my case I have set it to "chrome" (it can be "firefox" too), so it opens in chrome every time I use the extension.
i have no problem when i using windows, but since i use linux open in browser extension not work because default browser not set as well, and i try to set manual in VS Code setting and set the plugin open-in-browser by default to Firefox
its solving my problem i hope its work to you
If the above solution didn't work install its previous version

VS Code - How to have Terminal pane open by default?

In Visual Studio Code when I open the application I have to re-open the integrated terminal window every time.
Do you know the steps to have the CLI pane open as soon as the application loads by default without manually doing ctrl-backtick every time?
You can try the following:
Install an extension: Auto Run
Command.
Reload Visual Studio Code after installation.
In settings ctrl+, add following:
"auto-run-command.rules": [
{
"command": "workbench.action.terminal.new",
},
],
No built in way to do this , however you can submit a feature request here.
Or wait for this extension to mature.
I'm new, so I can't post comments yet. But I think an improvement to the solution offered by #victor-s is to use workbench.action.terminal.toggleTerminal, since that won't create a new terminal if one is already open.

How to start a new WebStorm window on a specific location?

I've created a WebStorm command-line launcher using Tools -> Create Command-line launcher. However, I would like to open a new WebStorm window (so while I already have one open) through the commandline. Is there any way to do this?
Apparently you can give multiple arguments to webstorm to open, e.g.:
wstorm /home/user/project1/ home/user/project2/
