Actual Behavior

Since updating to 1.22.10352.0, I have noticed a visual bug when you set opacity below 100%. Specifically, the background of white text is always 100% opaque. The same applies to deleted text.

Ok, I had an error updating PSReadline so I did this

• Install-Module -Name PSReadLine -Scope AllUsers -AllowClobber -Force
• Update-Module PSReadline
• Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted (because PSReadline won´t start otherwise)

Now it´s fixed. Thank you for your help.

Thanks for confirming!

In my case, privilege escalation was not necessary. PSReadline worked on the default execution policy.

好的，我在更新 PSReadline 时遇到错误，所以我这样做了

• 安装模块 -名称 PSReadLine -范围 AllUsers -AllowClobber -Force
• Update-Module PSReadline
• Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted （因为 PSReadline 不会启动）

现在它已经修复了。感谢您的帮助。

Thank you very much for your help in solving the problem that has been bothering me for a long time.

Updating PSReadline only resulted in the text being written white-on-white instead of adaptive the background color. see #18758 (Maybe it's a bug) .
