Windows Terminal version

1.11.2921.0

Windows build number

10.0.19044

Other Software

I've only seen the bug when running this program: https://github.com/JustArchiNET/ArchiSteamFarm.
I tried running cat * in a folder with many files to see if the same issue occurs, but it does not.
Nor does it occur with for ($i=0; $i -le 10; $i++) {echo 'a'; sleep 1}.

Steps to reproduce

Download the program and prerequisites from: https://github.com/JustArchiNET/ArchiSteamFarm/releases/tag/5.2.0.10 (win x64)
Run it in a powershell tab in terminal.
While the program is running, scrolling with the scrollwheel does not work.
Ctrl+Shift+up/down and dragging the scrollbar both work as expected.

Expected Behavior

Scrolling with the scrollwheel works while the program is running.
I don't know if the program is somehow capturing the scroll events, but I wouldn't expect a program to be able to do that.

Actual Behavior

While the program is running, scrolling with the scrollwheel does not work.
Ctrl+Shift+up/down and dragging the scrollbar both work as expected.
