Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.21296.1010
Windows Terminal version (if applicable): 1.6.10272.0

Any other software?

Steps to reproduce

  1. Upgrade to wt 1.6 (I did not see the problem with previous versions)
  2. Use wt on my primary screen -> mouse input does not work
  3. Move wt to screen 2 or 3 -> mouse input works

Expected behavior

Mouse input should work on all screens.

Actual behavior

After upgrading to 1.6, mouse input stopped working when I use wt on my primary screen. It works on screen 2 +3.

This includes interaction with the title bar like clicking on the "close", "maximize", "minimize" buttons, tab selection, new tab and so on, but also interaction with the terminal area like text selection. It just does not accept any mouse input at all.

If I move the terminal to another screen, mouse input works. When I move it back to my primary screen, it stops working. If it is partly on my primary screen and partly on another screen, then only the part that is on screen 2/3 accepts mouse input.
