Does anyone know how to change what shell codex uses on windows? I have tried both the VS Code extension and CLI in terminal and I cannot find a way to change the shell. My work IT has blocked powershell and so codex currently cannot read the files in the workspace. Is there any way to get it to use command prompt instead? I have tried switching VS Code to use command prompt by default and I have launched CLI from a command prompt window but codex always tries to use powershell.
I think it is not possible atm, the condition is that if powershell is “found” codex uses it despite policies, and only if not found then it fallbacks to cmd.exe but I suspect that would run very poorly.
One thing you might want to try is to install WSL if your IT rules allow it, and run with it.
In VS code WSL runs transparently and even provides a much better sandbox than the windows sandbox.
