Prompt Yes/No always defaults to no and doesn&#39;t let me choose #10786

#7467 is definitely related per the behaviour even if the underlying cause turns out to be totally different.

Okay I'm not really sure where to get artisan from, but on the surface this looks like a real bug.

@usanzadunje which version of php, and which version of the Windows Terminal are you using?

Its laravel feature to generate stuff and more. It really isnt important, i knew how to make command that will prompt question in Laravel so i did it there. But the problem occurs wherever i have prompted question in terminal. I mean there is probably some windows command which does something and then asks ... do you really want to do this? and then you can type y/n (yes/no) after which it executes command depending on what you entered. This happens when i use composer, npm. Im just listing this things cause i know them, but im 100% sure it would do the same thing on windows command that does same like i meantioned above.

I am using 7.4 PHP but as said i am pretty sure this isnt problem with php laravel or anything similar since it happens wherever there is command that prompts question.

Terminal version is this 1.3.2651.0 , i think.

I've got a feeling that whatever Windows Console API adapter PHP is using is subject to the same issue described in https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/3910#issuecomment-668252425.

If you set the setting (globally!) "experimental.input.forceVT": true, does it start working again?

I mean, knowing exactly what is causing this is actually quite important, because lots of different commandline applications prompt for input in lots of different ways. choice in cmd will set %errorlevel%, but that's working perfectly fine for me

So finding the exact broken application is actually quite important

@DHowett "experimental.input.forceVT": true -> This did not help, problem is still there.

@zadjii-msft Actually when i write what you did it doesnt choose y,n,c for me but i can choose myself and it works.

So this happens to me on laravels php artisan commands.

Before i used everything with no problem on my laptop(it had win 10 as well and everything same as my computer that has this problem) and now it doesnt work as expected. Also its really strange to me that i cannot find single article or post with this problem..

Is there anyone who can help with this problem? I even contacted microsoft agent, and spent 2 days doing what i was told in order to fix this issue, nothing helped.

You've found a bug in our terminal and we need some time to fix it. There does not appear to be a workaround. You tested something we thought would fix it, and it did not. This means that it is a bug that we need to fix.

The problem here is reproducing the bug. I can and have reproduced #7467, and even if upgrading ssh-keygen avoids the problem, this shows that there's definitely some kind of I/O that works with the old console server and doesn't work with the new one. The problem for the Microsoft people is the question: What kind of I/O is it? That's the first step to fixing the problem: identifying its locus.

Cranking up an entire PHP setup is not the easiest way to replicate a problem. In general, developers fix these problems more quickly if you can provide a simple method of replicating them; not a complex setup involving a PHP toolset that they've never even heard of. And the Microsoft people who work on Windows Terminal might not even be PHP developers.

As you can see, this doesn't happen with choice. So the challenge is for you, or other people with this problem, to find an example of it that does not involve specialist toolsets that the Microsoft people here might never have heard of or be able to set up. Try to find some simple well-known tool exhibiting the problem that isn't PHP. I'd firstly be checking out ones built with the same run-time library and compiler, in your place.

Personally, I think that #7467 should be open, as clearly there's something that ssh-keygen used to do that is a problem, and identifying what it was might well be useful.

@DHowett Alright, thanks for info.

@jdebp I mean i asked in several places people to give me some windows cmd or ps command that does anything and then prompts a question, idk something like do you want to continue or are you sure you want to do this or do you really want to.. so it prompts this question and then i need to answer with y/n(yes/no). So i can test if this bug actually happens on windows commands as well. If you know any please provice. I searched internet but i dont know how to actually search for these type of commands.
