## Window management commands

### New window

This creates a new window. Without any arguments, this will open the default profile in a new window (regardless of the setting of `windowingBehavior`). If an action is not specified, the default profile's equivalent setting will be used.

**Command name:** `newWindow`

**Default bindings:**

```json
{ "command": "newWindow", "keys": "ctrl+shift+n" },
```

#### Actions

| Name | Necessity | Accepts | Description |
| ---- | --------- | ------- | ----------- |
| `commandline` | Optional | Executable file name as a string | Executable run within the tab. |
| `startingDirectory` | Optional | Folder location as a string | Directory in which the window will open. |
| `tabTitle` | Optional | String | Title of the window tab. |
| `index` | Optional | Integer | Profile that will open based on its position in the dropdown (starting at 0). |
| `profile` | Optional | Profile's name or GUID as a string | Profile that will open based on its GUID or name. |

> [!IMPORTANT]
> This feature is only available in [Windows Terminal Preview](https://aka.ms/terminal-preview), version 1.7+.
