What's Wrong?

Making the window smaller helps slightly, but making it

Same issue here. Reverting to 2.0.72 solved the problem until a fix is available.

I have the same issue, tried different terminals (powershell, cmd, vscode terminal, git bash), the issue the same everywhere
If reinstall with deleting all local files, first run works well. but then broke again
