Originally created by @arebee on GitHub (Jun 25, 2019).

Environment

Windows 10 20H1 builds

Any other software?

No

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Terminal.
  2. Type any command string involving path or word boundaries.
  3. Press Ctrl+Backspace to delete to separator or word boundary. Fails.

Expected behavior

Pressing ctrl-backspace should delete through to word boundaries as it does using old conhost cmd.exe based console.

Open cmd.exe directly and repeat 2+3 for success.

Actual behavior

Single character deletion.
