FAQ

Why I am getting "The publisher could not be verified" warning ?

To avoid the message, the exe file must be properly signed, it will take about $200-$300 per year for the certification to sign the exe file. Currently I don't think it is worth to sign the file, at least at this stage. Also you are free to download the source code and compile it yourself.

Where the user setting is stored ?

User setting is stored under per user roaming directory, eg: C:\Users\${username}\AppData\Roaming\qterminal.org

My Home/End key doesn't work.

Ensure that default kaytab is used (File -> Preferences -> Behavior -> Emulation), or try other key maps, even modify kaytab define files, located \share\qtermwidget5\kb-layouts\ inside program directory.

Can I run CMD inside QTerminal ?

No, you can't. You can try run CMD.exe under WSL, it kinda works. But I won't put any work on it.
