A couple syncs ago Bash got updated and as such my terminal is no longer User@ComputerName but it just says bash-5.2

I did a Google but the file that site tells me to alter does not exist in the same place as the other Linuxes i am finding threads on.

  • ~/.bashrc and ~/.profile need to exist and must contain this line, ideally at the top:
    source /usr/share/defaults/etc/profile

    If you have removed this line or deleted those files the prompt would appear as you have described.
