(This article is kindly sponsored by Adobe.) When you design the information architecture, the navigation bars of an application, or the overall layout and visual design of a product, then you are focusing on macro design. When you design (one part of a page, one form, or one single task and interaction), then you are focusing on micro-moment design. In my experience, designers often spend a lot of time on macro design issues, and sometimes less so on critical micro-moment design issues.

I love the Windows Terminal, but right now I launch the Terminal, then I pick a Shell (PowerShell, CMD, bash, etc) from the menu. Sometimes I want to be "shell-first." I'll hit the Start Menu, type cmd, and then the older console/terminal starts up. I have to remember to run Terminal THEN run cmd. So I said to myself, "self, what's a good way to fix that?" When you press Start and start typing (which is different from WinKey+R and running a .exe directly) you're looking at Shortcuts/LNK files. You can make your own and change existing ones. Press Start, type "Command Prompt" or "PowerShell" and then RIGHT CLICK the icon and Open File Location. For example, Command Prompt was here on my machine:C:UsersscottAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuProgramsSystem Tools So I Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V to make a copy (backup) or I can just right click and hit properties to change the one I have. Then I change the Target to wt.exe (Windows Terminal) and pass in the Named Profile for the Shell I want:C:UsersscottAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindowsAppswt.exe -p "Command Prompt" In this case, it's Command Prompt. I also renamed my LNK file to Command Prompt (Terminal) but that's optional. I can do the same thing for PowerShell. I've moved to open source PowerShell 7 (based on .NET Core) that I installed from the Windows Store. Some store apps don't want you to change their icons so I just changed another. You can also make your own with right-click, New Shortcut. I even did this with the Visual Studio 2019 Developer Prompt by first making a Profile for it in my Terminal settings:{ "commandline": "C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -noe -c "&{Import-Module """C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\Common7\Tools\Microsoft.VisualStudio.DevShell.dll"""; Enter-VsDevShell 4f53a196}"", "guid": "{61c54bbd-c2c6-5271-96e7-009a87ff45ce}", "hidden": false, "name": "VS2019 Dev Prompt", "startingDirectory": "%USERPROFILE%"}, and then changing the icon to call it with wt.exe and the named profile. This can also work with Cygwin, Yori, Ubuntu, or any other shell. A few minutes and a few shortcut changes later, now I can hit start, type PowerShell, command, cmd, whatever, and it'll all load in Windows Terminal! Since this technique works only with lnk files that the Start Menu consumes, it also works with PowerToys Run (which is like Quicksilver or Spotlight on Mac)! Hope this helps!
