I think the problems on Windows are with the bare cmd.exe; adding cmder+clink on top of that IIRC fixes them. I personally use that plus oh-my-posh as a prompt engine (mostly because its configuration is portable and when I'm on Linux, I can reuse the same prompt on top of zsh) and it's fine both in Windows Terminal and in VSCode. Zsh is IIRC not natively available on Windows - you'd have to use something like WSL and run zsh inside that. Again, if it's just for the prompt, either oh-my-posh or clink-flex-prompt can help. The only thing that doesn't quite work in cmd.exe is rprompt (that prompt segment that sits on the right of the row you're typing on).
