Originally created by @0wwafa on GitHub (Dec 17, 2025).

This is a weird issue.
After a while using ConPTY (I use it with WSL 1 and Windows Command Prompt) the right mouse button "paste" does not work. Only CTRL-V (or from the menu does).

I don't know how to replicate it it because sometimes it happens pretty soon, other times it happens after some time.

WSL1 bash. but it happens also with cmd.exe

It happens randomly after pasting a big chunk of text.

Ah, I see! Thanks.

ConPTY is intended for terminal emulator authors who are trying to host Windows Console applications on Windows. It is not intended for use as a standalone console.

This might result in a long trace or a large trace file, but would you be able to run a trace next time you try to repro this bug? It would help us track the console state transitions.

Please note that any trace you generate this way may capture your input and your output for all console sessions in active use on the system, so... you know. Act accordingly.
