Ported out from customer feedback bug MSFT:21308307.

I haven't managed to reproduce or investigate this at all yet.

I have 2 open command prompts (regular, and admin powershell). I locked my computer last night, and it went to sleep automatically. After waking from sleep this morning, both terminals were showing black screens instead of the text that should be on them. Scrolling the window seems to cause a repaint and fixes the issue.

This also seems to affect 3rd party terminal apps as well (e.g. Terminus).
