You can change the font color from your powershell profile in the settings file.

Take a look at this article: https://dev.to/expertsinside/how-to-customize-the-new-windows-terminal-with-visual-studio-code-56b1
Each profile has a reference to a colorScheme, and some of those schemes are defined in the same file. Full documentation for reference.

@torms next time, instead of down voting, just mention that the referenced link is outdated, that could help other people. Thanks.

For reference, the new doc is here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/customize-settings/color-schemes

I updated my comment.

hello
I already came across the official doc and there is no reference about font color. So for me this issue is not resolved.
Thanks

It's right here in the example:

"foreground" : "#CCCCCC",

A terminal emulator typically has

  • A foreground color (color of the characters printed on the screen)
  • A background color (color of what's behind the text)
  • 8 accent colors for highlights

Please note that if you open your settings.json file you'll see this line:

schema": "https://aka.ms/terminal-profiles-schema",

The schema at this URL contains extensive documentation about every supported setting, so that your IDE can show that description to you when highlighted.

@MdSalmanTd That's because PSReadline automatically tries to syntax-highlight commands as you type them. You can read more about it:
