Windows Terminal version

1.21.2361.0

Windows build number

10.0.22631.0

Other Software

Hyper-V - I didn't do anything but enable it from stock Windows - version says 10.0.22621.1

I installed the Windows Terminal from winget

I'm using keyviz from scoop install keyviz to visualize the keypresses.

Steps to reproduce

Open up a split screen using alt+click

Expected Behavior

When I hold down alt+shift+left to resize the pane I expect to resize the screen

Instead pushes these keys:

also, in general, alt+left is sending alt+home on repeated presses

Also, I face no such issue in my host machine. And even in Hyper-V, when I use alt+left in Konsole (for Windows - downloaded from https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/utilities/konsole/master/windows/ ) - I don't get the alt+home - nor do I get that in VSCode running in Hyper-V.

Actual Behavior

See above
