Summary

When using the powershell.debugging.createTemporaryIntegratedConsole setting, if you use Ctrl+C to cancel a running script the PowerShell debugger does not stop; it stays running until you manually stop it. This also prevents you from rerunning the script until you manually stop the debugger.

This is the same as issue #3700 that was fixed, except it still occurs when the createTemporaryIntegratedConsole setting is enabled.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Ensure the powershell.debugging.createTemporaryIntegratedConsole settings is enabled.
2. Run a PowerShell script. e.g.

   for ($i = 0; $i -lt 10; $i++) {
   Write-Host "Running script. Press Ctrl+C to cancel script. $i"
   Start-Sleep -Seconds 1
   }
   

3. Press Ctrl + C to cancel the script.
4. Notice that the script stopped running, but the PowerShell debugger is still running and must be manually stopped.

Visuals

Here is a gif showing the problem. You can see that the powershell.debugging.createTemporaryIntegratedConsole setting is enabled and that a temporary terminal is created after pressing F5 to start the script. After pressing Ctrl+C to stop the script, the debugger stays running until I manually click the stop button on the debugger toolbar.

VS Code debugger stays running after script is cancelled
