Terminal on Android Studio not responding

Question

I updated to Android Studio 1.3 and to Windows 10 before that.

Now the issue I am facing is that my local embedded terminal in android studio has some how stopped responding to any kind of user input.

I have tried:

1. Restarting the android studio
2. Restarting the PC
3. Searching through Google for a solution

My Terminal settings

Has anyone ever faced a similar issue? Is it a Android Studio problem or a Windows problem? How to solve it?

You may suggest me to use the external terminal as that too will work fine. But that's not the answer I am looking for as it ruins the whole Android Studio experience.

Answer 1

This is an issue with IntelliJ and Windows 10 console. Here is a workaround from "IntelliJ Idea Terminal broken with Windows 10" thread: https://stackoverflow.com/a/31716623/703562
Works for Android Studio too.

The workaround:

1. Open a command-prompt window.
2. Right click on the title bar.
3. Select Properties, then check Set legacy mode box, and confirm the dialog.
