Windows 10 Upgrade Bug Disabled Cntrl-C In Bash

A massive set of changes to the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) was rolled into Windows Insider build 15002… If this is any hint, Microsoft’s goal is nothing short of making it a credible alternative to other Linux distributions… Some of the fixes also implement functionality that wasn’t available before to Linux apps in WSL, such as support for kernel memory overcommit and previously omitted network stack options. Other changes enhance integration between WSL and the rest of Windows…
[O]ne major issue in build 15002 is that Ctrl-C in a Bash session no longer works
Bash on Windows is becoming Linux for Windows users
Microsoft’s Windows Subsystem for Linux is evolving into a credible alternative to running Linux inside Windows on VMs
