Windows Terminal version

1.20.10822.0

Windows build number

Win32NT 10.0.22631.0 Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.22631.0

Other Software

Any text based utility or application.

Steps to reproduce

Open Windows terminal, run commands, then try to copy text output of commands to another application.

It works the first couple of times then stops.

For example - as soon as I run:

ssh -vvv user@host
I can't copy any of the debug out from the terminal window.

Expected Behavior

To be able to seamlessly cut and paste to-from a W T session.

Actual Behavior

You can't. Selected text isn't placed in the clipboard.
