Mine doesn't. I installed the Creators Update yesterday and my right-click menu still has the "Command Prompt" and "Command Prompt (Admin)" the same as before.
Maybe it's different for a fresh install versus an upgrade?

Same here.... Same Command Prompt and Command Prompt(Admin)...

Mine has PowerShell...
What version does your system say in System (right-click Start, choose "System")? If it's not Version 1703 and OS Build 15063, then it's not the Creator's Update.

Version 1703

Yup, CU with some additional updates (.138)
Maybe those additional updates put the command prompt back.

Start settings, search for PowerShell. Personalization->Taskbar: there is a switch: Replace Command Prompt ....

Command Prompt is still there and available.
It's being discouraged in favor of Powershell.
Powershell has all the same capabilities as Command Prompt and lots of new functionality, too.
Provecho!

Just tried it by myself (finished installing the creators update now) and pressing Win+R and writing CMD launches the normal command prompt.
Hope this helps.

Whatever happens, you will still be able to run all of your commands, batch files etc. Microsoft is not crazy enough to remove one of the most important pieces from the OS — I use cmd, and I have never used PowerShell.
Plus, if you pay attention to what was being done previously, you will see that Microsoft is investing more in the terminals, and less on PowerShell (comparatively). They introduced Bash on Windows as well, if they were going to force everyone to use PowerShell, then they would have never done that.
Also, PowerShell is capable of running managed scripts, as well as some other native scripts — either by the use of alias etc, but that is possible. For example, execute the following commands to see for yourself!
C:\Users\Username\Desktop> echo echo Hi > script.bat
C:\Users\Username\Desktop> powershell
Windows PowerShell Copyright (C) 2016 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
PS C:\Users\Username\Desktop> .\script.bat
C:\Users\afzaa\Desktop>echo Hi Hi
This shows, that you can still execute the scripts that you write in your batch — the commands need to be there, or recognizable by the Windows.
Nonetheless, it would be a very stupid move to remove cmd, many IT, developer and noob guys use it; even I use it.

Whether it stays or goes, this will only affect you if you actually apply the update. If you stay on the version you are currently using, you'll be fine.

They have also made it the default for the Terminal Window in VS Code.

Now that's - just noticed you can open powershell from the File Explorer | File menu - sort of a 'drop to dos' - in the current open folder.
Always wanted that.

|
|

Shift-right-click on the directory will also display "open powershell from here"

You can also type 'powershell' in the explorer bar, and it will open a session in the current folder.

For anyone who updates, does the new version of Edge allow you to right click a link, select 'open in new tab', and automatically open and switch to that new tab without pressing Ctrl and Shift? That is the one feature I can't do without. Especially if it is a mouse gesture, which the current version of Edge is totally crippled with compared to the competition.

It look like the same behaviour for me. But maybe there's some other gesture that does it that I'm not aware of. I'm happy to try stuff out if you have any ideas!

If you right click a link to open in a new tab.... Edge does not go to that Tab.... And I cannot find anything in Settings to change that behavior at all... unlike Chrome....

Right-click does open in a new tab, but doesn't switch to it.
