This is because it cannot find the .exe executable file, you can fix it with the following settings:

  1. If you use cmd.exe to execute the script, use:

"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe"

  1. If you use PowerShell.exe to execute the script, use:
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe"

For more, you could also refer to: Terminal.integrated.shell.windows.
