Is it possible to replace Powershell in a Windows 10 environment with a Linux/Unix like CLI? Or is the Linux subsystem the only option?

• cmder

  Lovely console emulator package for Windows

  

There is a utility called cmder. It is a bash shell that can be used to run Linux and Windows commands.

• Windows Terminal

  507 93,619 9.7 C++

  The new Windows Terminal and the original Windows console host, all in the same place!

  

From what I have tried, it's impossible. Yes, you can run WSL or Cygwin, but when you are using virtual machines, it's easier to sping a small Linux VM and use the Microsofts terminal to connect to it. https://github.com/microsoft/terminal. This is the way I do it when I need Bash shell, however, this way I have no option to manage host OS.
