Description of the new feature/enhancement

There should be an option for Open Terminal Here in the right click menu a.k.a Context Menu. Same as when I right click in a folder, and if Visual Studio is installed it shows option Open in Visual Studio, also if we install the Git Bash also it allows us to open that specific folder in the Bash Terminal right from the Context Menu or right click menu.

This seems a duplicate of https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/6414, which was already fixed. The fix is in v1.6.10272.0 but the binaries have not been released yet.

I found this guide for that:
https://dev.to/priyaranjankumar/how-to-add-open-windows-terminal-in-context-menu-36ni

I hope that version v1.6.10272.0 will solve this alot nicer with a supported settings and not one of all this web regex hacks. 😀
(or atleast a supported regex hack in the program😉 )
