✅ How to get Console app to open in console rather than within vs code
I am following a tutorial and whenever he runs his program it opens in the console. The code runs the same. However, he changes the window title and background color which does not happen for me since it is happening within vs code. Any way to change this?

I don't have a launch.json as apart of my project so I was able to add one but do I have to add something before those curly brackets to make it work
No
Just
should suffice
and thats within my project folder?
Yes
In the
.vscode directoryits still opening in the vs code terminal
im pretty sure its in the right directory as the right name
there is also a settings.json in that directory if i should put it in thee?
How do you run it?
With F5, green arrow, or whatever it is that DevKit adds?
run > run and start debugging
running with or without debugging doesnt make a difference
Huh
Sorry, never in my life have I used VSCode to write C# so I have no experience
Actually, no, I used it a couple of times but always with
dotnet run and never any debuggingno problem thanks for the help anyways
there is no reason to do this manually in the json file
there is an option in the VS code settings for this
change it to "externalTerminal"
ohh thank you sm ill try that when i get home
