Why does my VS Code terminal keep getting terminated? - visual-studio-code

I'm facing a problem in running my programs on Visual Studio Code.
Every time I open the terminal it exits terminates with exit code 4294967295. Please help me resolve this issue.
The terminal process "C:\WINDOWS\System32\wsl.exe" terminated with exit code: 4294967295.

Did you run the wsl.exe command inside the running WSL distribution? First close the running wsl.exe window and run the command from another command prompt window. If that didn't work try with another distribution.

How to open VSCode from command prompt as its own thread without hijacking the terminal?

On Windows, when I open a folder from the terminal in VSCode with the "code ." command, it opens VSCode correctly but the terminal window becomes a slave, running all console commands from the app without returning command to me. If I close the terminal, VSCode also closes, it seems that the application thread is being run as child of the terminal process that gets killed with its parent. The same does not happen with "xp . ", my shortcut for the file explorer.
My question is how to make VSCode open as its own process letting the terminal be free.
Found the solution:
cmd /c start "VSCode" "code.exe" .

VScode integrated termial fails to launch

Here's the situation. I was testing a basic proxy application. But I made a mistake, and the proxy fell into a infinite print loop. So I terminated the terminal that was going on a loop, and suddenly, vscode won't let me use integrated terminal. The error reads,
"The terminal process failed to launch: A native exception occurred during launch (forkpty(3) failed.)."
How can I fix this issue?
I solved this issue by using another terminal to log in to the shell and forcefully quit all of the processes. This was not a problem of vscode but a problem of having abnormal processes running on the remote server.

Integrated terminal in visual studio code is opening externally and not internally

Visual Studio Code not running/working on WSL 2

Somehow when I run code . inside the WSL, it simply doesn't do anything. If I which code it does return the VS Code path on windows, but still nothing happens.
Well, after some research, what really fixed the issue for me was the following:
Within the WSL terminal, type rm -r ~/.vscode-server to delete the VS Code WSL server.
Exit the terminal and from your PowerShell/Cmd, run wsl --shutdown.
Then you can log in back to your WSL and run code . and it should work normally.
I solved it following this post with slight modifications.
exit all instaces of wsl
From the power shell run wsl --shutdown
Start VS Code on Windows
Open a previously saved project which uses wsl (this is the difference)
Open wsl and run code . starts VS Code for me
Note: the issue appeared for me after upgrading to wsl2

Whenever I open integrated terminal in VS code 1.18, it crashes PowerShell

Even though I have set below code in setting.json:
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\bash.exe"
Whenever I open the "integrated terminal" it starts and right away shows:
"The terminal process terminated with exit code: 259"
There is also a dialog outside code saying:
"powershell has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
this happens in 32bit and 64bit too
Any idea how to overcome this?
The code 259 usually means STILL_ACTIVE and this is rather strange.
You may try to use ProcessMonitor to determine which processes are started during your call and perhaps that gives you a clue.
Open Task Manager
I Clicked on End Task on all process of VS Code
Error vanished
