• In a new command prompt: '''bat clink info '''
• identify the settings directory and save the attached oh-my-posh.lua file there optionally, use a different theme if you like. Preview them here, find them on here system in %POSH_THEMES_PATH% Configure powershell prompt: In a powershell prompt (start > run > pwsh): notepad $profile save the following in the file that just opened (if you chose a different theme in the previous step, apply it here too) oh-my-posh init pwsh --config "$env:POSH_THEMES_PATH/powerlevel10k_rainbow.omp.json" | Invoke-Expression do the same thing for the admin profile: sudo pwsh notepad $profile
