Is that in Windows 10? Please update the Windows conhost/conpty layer as described in https://github.com/mintty/wsltty/#launching-wsl which links to the description in the mintty wiki. I should expose that better on the project page and also mention that it is important for mouse interaction.

Is that in Windows 10? - yes Maybe the application should automatically detect that it is running on windows 10 and work correctly without requiring any additional actions from the user?

The wslbridge gateway previously used by default had recurring invocation issues so wsltty was not usable for some people. That's why wsltty now changed to using the native wsl.exe gateway instead, after that had been enabled to get rid of previous problems on its part, unfortunately not yet completely, so switching at this time was a trade-off.

You can revert to the previous gateway by setting WSLbridge=2 in %APPDATA%/mintty/config or %APPDATA%/wsltty/config.
