Terminal mode lacks scrollbar

The content window with the conversation in terminal mode (not native) lacks a scrollbar. In vs2026. Latest version of the extension.

Thanks for reporting this.

Version 181.0 addresses this: the Command Prompt terminal is now launched with a full scrollback buffer (and therefore a scrollbar) even when the Windows console defaults leave no scrollback configured. Please update the extension (Extensions → Manage Extensions → Updates) to 181.0 or later and restart the code agent.

If the scrollbar is still missing on 181.0+, could you send the log file so I can check the launch parameters used on your machine?

%LocalAppData%\ClaudeCodeExtension\terminal-launch.log

Paste that path into Explorer's address bar (it expands to C:\Users\<you>\AppData\Local\ClaudeCodeExtension\terminal-launch.log) and attach the file here.

Along with the log, it would help to know:

• The extension version you are on (Extensions → Manage Extensions → Installed).
• Which terminal type is selected under ⚙ → Settings... → Terminal — Command Prompt or Windows Terminal.
• A screenshot of the panel, so I can confirm whether the scrollbar is absent or just very small.
