Can't Stop Terminal in VS Code

Question

I want to stop terminal in VS Code with CTRL + C but instead of stopping it, it shows ^C (GitBash)/copy directory (CMD). Because of that, I decided to kill the terminal. How to deal with that?

Answer 1

Use Ctrl + D to log out of the terminal, and automatically close it.

Ctrl + C just sends a SIGINT to the process, which is usually causing it to abort, but it's up to the application to decide.
