This issue was fixed (see #1306). Please upgrade to the 2.0.2 version of PSReadLine from PowerShellGallery. See the upgrading section for instructions. Please let us know if you run into the same issue with the latest version.

That did the trick. It said I was running the rerelease in the psd1 and I just did an install-module so I can update it. Problem is gone. I guess we can close out the issue 😊

Thanks Dave

Before we go too much further, I’d recommend updating to at least v2.0.2 of PSReadLine; I know there were a bunch of issues related to buffer handling that were fixed in 2.0.0 GA and subsequent patches. I’m not sure if you’re using GA or the pre-release version there, but either way best first step is to see if it’s still happening on the latest release 🙂
