Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Windows Terminal with a command prompt
  2. type "cd "
  3. type "color 1e"
  4. Now the background is blue and the text is yellow.
  5. type "dir /s"

Expected Behavior

After the "dir /s" I expect the background to stay blue.

Actual Behavior

After the "dir /s" the background of the text stays blue but the non-text area goes black (or the color as specified by the Windows Terminal preferences).
