Re-installing nRF Connect solved the problem!

I have seen a few reports saying downgrading to Toolchain manager v1.2.5 or 1.2.6 solves the problem with command prompt not opening. The recommended way to handle the toolchain is to use VScode so I see no harm in downgrading

This seems to work. Additionally, "Open bash" in the small arrow menu works too, which I have mainly used instead of the command prompt.

Thanks, do you face the same issue if you open the nRF Connect terminal inside VScode?

The command prompt cannot be opened from the nRF Connect SDK v2.5.2's "Open command prompt" button in the small arrow menu.

I am using "Windows Console Host", i.e. the old command prompt program, due to Octave having problems with the new Terminal program in Windows 11.

I will need to investigate a bit as it is not something I can recall seeing reported here. Is the terminal unable to launch at all? Which terminal are you using?
