Prerequisites

  • I have written a descriptive issue title.
  • I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
  • I have read the troubleshooting guide.
  • I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
  • I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
  • If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

Trying to run the following:

$NewRunspace = [runspacefactory]::CreateRunspace()
$NewRunspace.Open()
$Host.PushRunspace($NewRunspace)

Will cause the terminal to rapidly write out error messages with no way to stop it without killing the terminal.

I don't expect this to work, but it should throw a notsupported error and recover if I try to do something that isn't supported.
