Remove terminal instances by hovering a tab and selecting the Trash Can button, selecting a tab item and pressing Delete, by using Terminal: Kill Active the Active Terminal Instance command, or via the right-click context menu. This action creates another entry in the tab list associated with that terminal. Terminal instances can be added by clicking the + icon on the top-right of the TERMINAL panel, selecting a profile from the terminal dropdown, or by triggering the ⌃⇧` (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Shift+`) command.

The terminal tabs view is on the right side of the terminal view. Note: Open an external terminal with the ⇧⌘C (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Shift+C) keyboard shortcut if you prefer to work outside VS Code.
