Windows Terminal version

1.16.10262.0

Windows build number

10.0.22621.1702

Other Software

git version 2.39.2.windows.1

Steps to reproduce

  • start a terminal
  • run a command which uses a pager e.g. git log
  • Maximize the terminal pane
  • Page down (space) a few pages
  • Terminal goes unresponsive (i.e. the 'less' prompt does not reappear)

Expected Behavior

Scrolling down keeps working normally
Pressing 'q' quits the pager

Actual Behavior

One must interrupt to get the prompt back.
For some reason terminal within vscode cannot be interrupted with keyboard & one must kill the task.
