Windows Terminal version

1.22.10731.0

Windows build number

10.0.19045.5247

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

Use any scheme with transparency turned on in appearance of at least 80%, or use any light colored scheme in Powershell (not powershell 7).

Expected Behavior

When I do spaces or delete lines the text should be normal like everyone else's (the issue doesn't happen in CMD):

Actual Behavior

Spaces appear in between text and when I delete characters and they remain even after new lines. Not caused by selecting text in terminal.
