Steps to reproduce

A few weeks ago I spent a lot of time trying to run commands ready to split windows, I tried hard to put the commands in the WT command itself, but the only way I could do it was by calling external command files, and now neither method is working

Expected behavior

I had taken a print when it worked, it looked like this:

It was making my life a lot easier, I was full of open terminals before.

Actual behavior

Translation of errors:

'"# Development 3 dev.cmd"' is not recognized as an internal command
or external, an operable program or a batch file.
