Terminal not getting activated in Insiders

See original GitHub issue

Activation of environments is broken in VSC Insiders. The configuration setting terminal.integrated.shell.<platform> returns null in insiders.

See below:

I closed the vscode issue, please try fix this on your end before we go out with 1.35 stable (sometime next week). The proposal is to leverage Terminal.name when you’re sending something to a terminal you don’t own (see https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/74233#issuecomment-497527337) and otherwise when the shell is null fill it in with your own default (like this).

The reason the fix has to be on the side of extensions is because otherwise extensions will break when connected to remotes.

Proper fix proposal -> https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/75091, it will still need extensions to adopt it though.
