Visual Studio Code – VS Code always maximizes terminal when opening PowerShell script

When opening a directory in VS Code and clicking on a PowerShell script, the terminal is maximized instead of splitting the screen between the Editor and Terminal tab.

Can I somehow control this setting so that I always see the Editor and Terminal tab?
