Basically all terminal commands which you can see in contextual menu by clicking right click(Copy/Paste/…) they work only for last opened terminal window(when opened with Split Terminal command)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open Terminal
2. Open contextual menu by clicking right button, press Split Terminal
3. Focus 1st terminal, open contextual menu by clicking right button and press some option item(Copy/Paste/Clear)
4. See that command was executed for 2nd terminal(which was opened last)

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. I can repro this. I’ll forward it to the team.

Also I see kinda related issue:
I have a keyboard shortcut “alt+cmd+right” assigned to workbench.action.terminal.focusNextPage with some conditions to make sure that this command is triggered when terminal is focused etc. Also the same keyboard shortuct is assigned to other stuff - e.g. swiching between open tab files in main editor.
But this behaviour broke so that this command works only correctly for the same last opened terminal as in my original post, if other terminal is focused and I press this command - it works for files in main editor(so it kinda doesn’t see that terminal window is focused)
