Hi,
maybe this feature already exists but it would be great if last commands would be saved, e.g. when I drop some powershell commands, exit terminal and reopen it, last commands can be restored by pressing down key. Something like a command history.

Or does this already exist. Currently neither powershell profile nor command line profile saves the commands.

PowerShell already does this, if you hit the up key, right? I believe that's provided by the PSReadline module. As much as I'd love to add that to cmd.exe, we won't be updating cmd.exe anytime soon. If you want a modern, updated shell on Windows, you should try out PowerShell 7.
