That Windows is from 2017, can you try updating your Windows 10?

A fallback could be implemented using the wide spread winpty bridge. Not sure that would give us anything that we don't have when using ConPTY (image graphics? :-D).

So for backwards compatibility with older Windows OS's, I don't see myself adding winpty support (simply due to time constraints), but if someone would jump in and create a PR for adding winpty support, I'd be more than happy to accept that.

Until then, @Medel , I think the only option for you would be to update your Windows to at least build number 18309 (Windows 10 version 1803).

I close it since we will not fix it
