I want to add a new terminal in Visual Studio Code

I want to add multiple terminals in my Visual Studio Code so that when I click on New Terminal I should get git-bash as my 1st terminal and Windows cmd as my 2nd terminal. I followed the tutorial on Visual Studio Code Terminals Configuration.

and tried to add a new terminal but the only thing I can see while adding a new terminal is git-bash. Here is my settings.json file content:

{
    "vsicons.presets.foldersAllDefaultIcon": true,
    "workbench.iconTheme": "material-icon-theme",
    "git.ignoreMissingGitWarning": true,
    "terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\git-bash.exe",
    "team.showWelcomeMessage": false,
    "gitlens.mode.active": "zen",
    "workbench.colorTheme": "Default High Contrast"
},
{
    "vsicons.presets.foldersAllDefaultIcon": true,
    "workbench.iconTheme": "material-icon-theme",
    "git.ignoreMissingGitWarning": true,
    "terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe",
    "team.showWelcomeMessage": false,
    "gitlens.mode.active": "zen",
    "workbench.colorTheme": "Default High Contrast"
}

Let me know if you have any suggestions.

I know 2 options. But after reload VSC this settings are removed and every start you need repeat this steps. If you finde how do this pls complement my answer.

Option 1

1) remove second terminal from settings.json. Now in terminal-list (right side of Terminal panel) you have only git-bash.
2) rename path from git-bash to cmd.exe.
3) in terminal panel right side click on button "new terminal". You will see cmd.exe as second terminal.

Option 2

1) ctrl+shift+p. For open console in top side.
2) Write: "Terminal: Select Default Shell". You will see all terminals.
3) select terminal from list.
4) in terminal panel right side click on button "new terminal". You will see another terminal
