Fixing weird powershell colors

In windows terminal I’d get these horrible colors after typing a “space” or pressing “backspace” in powershell.

Dark grey text on black background clashing with the color theme

This issue told me to “update psreadline”. Ok but how do you do that

add PowerShellGet

Following instructions here. This from an administrator Powershell.

Install-Module -Name PowerShellGet -Force

This first asked me to install a “NuGet provider”. Alright, sure, whatever.

Closed that powershell and opened a new regular one in windows terminal. Ran this.

Install-Module PSReadLine -Repository PSGallery -Scope CurrentUser -AllowPrerelease -Force

I guess the CurrentUser scope is fine, i’m the only user on this pc. Not sure if other options work.

Closed that powershell tab as well and opened a new one. That seemed to fix the colors.

Grey text on white background looking okay

No idea.
