Answer: 
In the new Windows Terminal, you can click Settings and edit the line "startingDirectory" to achieve something similar.

Please note, however, that this changes the default startup directory only in Windows Terminal, and not for the command prompt globally.
"start in directory" command

```
cmd /K cd C:\WorkSpace

```

but if WorkSpace happens to be on different than C drive, console will be launched in default folder and then you still need to put D: to change drive
To avoid this use cd with -d parameter

```
cmd /K cd -d D:\WorkSpace

```

create a shortcut and your fixed ;)
